* ''Arache'' features a hairless womam with exposed breasts and genitals with four arms and four legs. If that doesn't turn you off, her disapproving gaze staring right at the viewer will.

* FanDisservice: Nude figures as a tradition tend to evoke some erotic connotations by their very nature. While some of Grün's paitnings fall prey to this, there are others that purposefully subvert this through a mix of BodyHorror and general surrealness.

Gabriel Grün is a Magic Realist and Ultra-Contemporary Figurative painter born in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1978.

He identifies as a member of the [[https://darkartmovement.com/dark-art-movement/ Dark Art Movement]], a contemporary descendent of the [[{{Surrealism}} Surrealist Movement]] with a focus on the incorporation of black for {{Chiaroscuro}} and the use of dream logic to draw upon darker interpretations of the human experience.

In Grün's case, he works predominantly as a Figure painter, depicting the human body using techniques of the Rennaissance and Baroque masters in a matter that borders on the grotesque.

!!Tropes found in Grün and his work:
* BatPeople: ''Murciélago'' features a human man with wings anatomically similar to that of a bat pinned to a surface with pins in a manner similar to a crucified Jesus.
* BodyHorror: A lot of his paintings add something extra to the figures (like bat wings or superflous genitals) as [[RuleOfSymbolism commentary on real-world issues]].
* FanDisservice: Nude figures as a tradition tend to evoke some erotic connotations by their very nature. While some of Grün's paitnings fall prey to this, there are others that purposefully subvert this through a mix of BodyHorror and general surrealness.
** ''La Pequeña Peluda'' features a [[AmbiguousGender vaguely androgynous]] figure with long red hair that drapes not unlike Botticelli's Venus. The hair on their head is cut fairly short, with the drappery happening from their armpits and ''pubes.''
** ''La Pequeña Aracné'' features a woman with three sets of legs, the curvature of her buttocks molding into two other bottoms that connect with the four extra legs.

** ''Tacto (Touch)'' features a bald, nude woman absolutely ''covered'' in spare nipples.

* RecliningVenus: ''The Big Halatea'' and ''The Small Galatea'' both feature female nudes reclining against a pastoral backdrop [[ArtImitatesArt in a manner similar]] to ''Art/{{Sleeping Venus|Giorgione}}'' and Cabanel's ''[[Art/TheBirthOfVenusCabanel The Birth of Venus]]''.
