Thomas Salamonski

Thomas Salamonski is a Vienna-based contemporary
artist known for his vibrant Pop Art paintings
combining explosive colour with genuine 24 karat
gold leaf. His signature "Squared Faces" series
and iconic animal portraits — Arabian horses and
falcons — have been exhibited internationally,
including a sold-out debut in Abu Dhabi where two
works sold within 48 hours.

Working primarily in acrylic and gold leaf on
canvas, Salamonski creates large-format statement
pieces that bridge the worlds of fine art, luxury
interior design, and contemporary collecting.
His work is held in private collections across
Europe and the Middle East.
