BIOGRAPHY OF THE ARTIST:
ALBERTO GISBERT SIURANA, was born in Castellar-Oliveral (Valencia) on September 19, 1923. He was a pupil of the painter José Marced Furió.
He studied at the School of Fine Arts of San Carlos in Valencia from 1940 to 1944.
After leaving the School of Fine Arts, he spent several years making reproductions of master works by Velázquez, Goya, Rubens and Murillo, among others.
He also spent several years combining reproductions with painting on ceramics and painting cinema posters.
He has carried out several restorations of religious themes, in the side domes of the Parish Church of Nuestra Señora de Lepanto in Castellar (Valencia), as well as the creation of two murals of six square meters on the sides of the High Altar of the same parish, and also a reproduction in the Sacristy of the High Altar of El Salvador by Juan de Juanes, and an icon of the Virgin of Perpetual Help in a side altar.
In the church of San Martín de Porres in El Oliveral (Valencia), he created a mural of twelve square meters on a religious theme of Jesus and his apostles, for the Communion Chapel, and also a six-square-meter canvas of the Virgin of Sorrows (Rosary) located on the right wing of the church.
Moreover, Alberto Gisbert has held numerous exhibitions of his works in eminent art galleries in Valencia and Madrid, among others.
He has balanced his devotion to painting with a job as a charcoal photo retoucher in his own studio. Due to vision and back problems associated with this work, he was forced to retire from this profession, but he never abandoned painting, his true vocation. Not surprisingly, Alberto Gisbert demonstrated his passion for painting up to the very moment of his disappearance at the age of 86, on July 12, 2009, when an unfinished still life remained in his studio.
