The art world has a new star that shines with its own light, and this star glows with all the warmth and passion of Calabria.
We are talking about Sonia Giordano, known in the art world as So Art, a true concentrate of talent and creativity firmly rooted in the sun-kissed land of the Ionian Sea and the shores of Cariati!
The name Sonia Giordano has become synonymous with artistic excellence. Her resume is a tangible testament to her commitment and dedication to the art world since 1998, the year of her first participation in an artistic event that marked a significant milestone in her career.
Since then, So Art has traveled a long path filled with extraordinary works, successful exhibitions, and prestigious awards.
Today, a new milestone adds to her already rich collection of successes: Sonia Giordano is among the winning artists at an important vernissage held in Paris, the “Top Selection Paris 2024” award, which saw the participation of 1,305 artists from 60 countries around the world.
Sonia Giordano Gasser (the latter being her Swiss husband’s surname) is among “The New Faces of Contemporary Art“: 27 artists selected by Denis Cornet of the Thuillier Gallery in Paris.
The news has stirred great excitement and pride within the Calabrian artistic community, which sees Sonia as a true representative of the region’s talent and creativity. Her works, characterized by a strong emotional impact and an incredible ability to communicate with the audience, have captured the attention and admiration of critics and collectors worldwide.
For Sonia Giordano, this new challenge represents an extraordinary opportunity to showcase her art to an even wider audience and to bring the essence and beauty of Calabria beyond national borders.
Her participation in the Paris event is yet another recognition of the value and talent of an artist who, with her passionate and tireless work, continues to leave an indelible mark on the contemporary art scene.
“I enrolled after being selected by Rossella Antonucci, art consultant and expert at Pitturiamo, for the Top Sélection in Paris – says Sonia Giordano – One initial milestone was being among the 100 contemporary artists, followed by the joy of entering this Top Selection of 27 artists!
I am a passionate individual coming from the world of fashion design. I explore through my works a vibrant universe of colors and emotions – concludes the artist from Cariati – capturing beauty and imagination, revealing the magic of abstraction with a unique and stimulating touch”.
Next stop, the International Art Prize in New York – Manhattan, a prestigious event taking place in the heart of New York, organized by PitturiAmo, a renowned platform dedicated to contemporary art.
The goal is to provide visibility and recognition to artists from every corner of the globe, as well as to identify and promote emerging talent, offering artists the opportunity to showcase their works in an internationally prestigious context.
Thanks to collaborations with prominent European and non-European gallery owners, the competition aims to place selected artists in an exclusive circuit that will guide them towards international success and recognition.
The International Art Prize thus serves as a launchpad for international artists, a unique opportunity to express their creativity and showcase their talent in a context of absolute prestige and visibility.
We can only wait with eager anticipation for this extraordinary event that promises to reveal to the world the new voices of contemporary art, wishing Sonia Giordano the best success for this new adventure, confident that her name will continue to shine ever brighter in the international art scene.
