Aurél Bernáth (1895–1982) was a Hungarian painter and art theorist.

Bernath fought as a soldier in the First World War and moved to Vienna in 1921.

Bernath's painting style was heavily influenced by the onslaught of German Expressionism.

He was invited to Berlin by Herwarth Walden where his work was exhibited at the now-defunct Sturm Gallery between 1922 and 1924.

Two years later, he returned to Hungary and joined the KUT (Képzőművészek Új Társasága, New Society of Artists), becoming one of the leading figures of the Gresham Circle of artists during the 1930s.
