Bernard Pietraga, born in 1994, is a contemporary art painter known for his acrylic abstract works and glass installations. He is a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. He has gained recognition in the art community through exhibitions and international competitions. He was a finalist in the 2018 Global Art Awards, held in Dubai. He has exhibited his works at the New York Art Center in TriBeCa, among others.

From the beginning, he has been fascinated by mathematical form in art. "Transcendental Painting" is a recognition that geometry - the basis of color - is the essence of the work. Monuments and limited minimal shapes reflecting human nature are the creative accents for which he is known. The artist's main goal is to convey the beauty of life, and he does so in an original and thought-provoking way.

His art goes beyond aesthetic appreciation and aims to engage viewers on a deeper level, sometimes relating to the subject matter of abracham religions. A contemplative and philosophical approach is the focal point of Bernard Pietraga's work.
