Distinciones Prix International de peinture "Novembre à Vitry" (52nd edition)

Jose Bonell (born 1989) is a Catalan artist, best known for his paintings of enigmatic interiors where objects often take centre stage, painted in a fluid style. He is the co-director of Unica Edicions with Sara Bonache, an independent artists' book publisher based in Barcelona. Since march 2021, he is a resident of Piramidón Centre d'Art Contemporani[1]​. In 2020 he won the first painting prize at the 52nd edition of the Prix International de Peinture "Novembre à Vitry"[2][3]​. He lives in Barcelona, Spain.

His paintings explore enigmatic narratives endowed with a powerful tension. Bonell’s images only reveal so much, leaving us bemused, curious and even bewitched. Despite the familiar or ordinary elements in his work, we are always confronted with oddities, abnormalities, and strangeness.  The barrier between what we know and what we don’t, blurs. By introducing mystery to his work, Bonell provokes a sense of unease, of "Umheimlich", leaving us to our speculations, but never with the full truth.
