In 1960 Wilding was in contact with GRAV in Paris and became a member of the Nouvelle Tendance, he participated with this group in 1965 in the exhibition at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris, and in the same year in the major exhibition “The Responsive Eye” at MoMA in New York. In 1967 his work was included in the exhibition “Kinetika” at the Museum des 20 Jahrhunderts in Vienna. In 1983 his work was included in “L’ultima avanguardia,” Palazzo Reale, Milan. In 2004 some pieces were shown in the exhibition “Eyes, Lies, and Illusions,” Hayward Gallery, London.
