Amazing Contorted Beasts And Hybrid Creatures In Oil Paintings by Bruno Pontiroli

Bruno Pontiroli is a French surreal painter known for hyper‑precise oil paintings of absurd, hybrid human–animal creatures that bend, stretch, and balance in impossible poses, like a circus from a different universe.

He grew up in the south of France, started as a graffiti writer on trains around Europe, and now shows internationally (Corey Helford Gallery LA, Roq La Rue Seattle, Beinart Gallery Melbourne, Fousion Gallery Barcelona), with recent solo shows like “Histoires Naturelles & Grotesques” and “Bêtises.”
