Zsolt Salamon | Painting, Drawing

Born in Sfântu Gheorghe, Romania (1979) and now based in Austria, Zsolt Salamon is a prominent visual artist and member of the Professional Association of Austrian Visual Artists. His technical expertise is rooted in his studies at the Plugor Sándor Art High School and a specialization in Multimedia Design from the Fine Arts University in Timișoara.

Salamon’s work is a profound exploration of illumination, treating light as both a muse and a sculptor. His minimalist approach strips away the unnecessary, focusing on the "quiet drama" between brilliance and shadow. Through this deliberate orchestration, he reveals the anatomy of hidden worlds, transforming abstract concepts into tangible visual realities. His international career is marked by notable exhibitions, including the 2025 exhibitions 8 billion and 100 x 100 (Salzburg); Rome Open Art (Rome), and the 2024 exhibitions Loved to Death (Vienna), and BIAMT Micromundos (Timișoara). His work was showcased over the years in London, Mexico City, Athens, and Vienna's Schönbrunn Palace.

Salamon continues to bridge expressive visual language with conceptual depth, turning the unseen into a powerful presence.
