The Art of Impact: GILDA’s Unique Voice in Global Contemporary Art
Currently on view at the LinKong Contemporary Museum of Art in Beijing, artist GILDA is exhibiting eight large-scale works that reflect the distinctive visual language she has refined over a five-decade career. Her artistic signature is powerfully embodied in her ongoing collection, Strangely Beautiful Animals a limited series of 50 paintings on linen that merges Neo-Expressionist intensity with Pop Art vibrancy.

The series stems from GILDA’s firm belief that animals are intelligent, intuitive beings. Each work is conceived as a unique portrait, with the artist creating only one depiction of each animal. This rarity, combined with the expressive force of her style, has made the paintings highly sought after as collectible works. The series has already been featured in numerous magazines.
This portrait of “Louis” appears on the cover of Fine Arts magazine. Louis is the dog of Avv. Massimo Mazzoleni and his wife, Sylvia Gallo Mazzoleni. They are the owners of the recently renowned and frequently featured in the news painting Christ of Lecco, attributed to Leonardo da Vinci, along with nine other works attributed to the master.
GILDA is represented by Chrissy Moore Art Advisory, which highlights the artist’s ability to combine colour, emotional resonance, and a humanistic approach across her multidisciplinary practice. Her portfolio ranges from vivid Pop-influenced canvases to monumental mosaic installations reminiscent of illuminated stained-glass murals. Her international footprint, including exhibitions in major institutions, underscores an evolving practice that crosses both cultures and mediums.
CMAA describes its collaboration with GILDA as more than representation; it is a partnership with an artist whose work consistently demonstrates the connective and transformative power of art. Her longstanding commitment to community-centred projects particularly her large collaborative mosaics involving children, families, and underserved groups reinforces a belief that art should be shared, experienced collectively, and carry meaningful social impact.

Through her presence at CMAA, GILDA contributes not only artistic excellence but also a philosophy that aligns with the advisory’s mission of championing creators whose work embodies both aesthetic strength and emotional truth.

Orders yet grounded in humanity, a practice that harmonises museum-level refinement with genuine social impact. Her work pushes us to curate with greater intention, to think expansively, and to build pathways worthy of a career that continues to shape the landscape of contemporary visual culture.
