Aldo Gentilini was born in Genoa in 1911. From a young age he felt a strong religious vocation that led him to enter the cloistered monastery of Pietrasanta, where he stayed for three years pursuing philosophical studies, before dedicating himself, as a self-taught artist, to artistic research, which would lead him to exhibit in numerous shows in Italy and abroad.

A man of faith, he believed that only through art could the divine be reached. And this idea would underpin all his work: "I try to make emptiness – Gentilini stated – This emptiness provokes a certain catharsis in me: I observe sensitive values that I respect, I reassess them, but I never know how I will fall into the painting, and this is the realization of a truth toward the sign never thought".

He was an artist practicing asceticism, to imitate the Saint to whom he was devoted. The two natures, the human and the aesthetic, coincide perfectly.
