Franco Gentilini (Faenza, Ravenna, 1909 \u2013 Rome, 1981) was an Italian painter.
\nHe worked as a ceramist in Faenza and collaborated with Giovanni Romagnoli and Giorgio Morandi in Bologna.<\/p>\n

He participated in several editions of the Venice Biennale<\/strong>, starting with his work being accepted for the 17th Esposizione Internazionale d\u2019Arte della Citt\u00e0 di Venezia in 1930, during which time he also visited Paris.<\/p>\n

In 1932, he moved to Rome and held his first solo exhibition at the Galleria di Roma, showcasing works in an archaic style inspired by pre-Renaissance Italian art. He also established himself as a fresco painter.<\/p>\n

In 1933, he participated in the 5th Esposizione Internazionale delle Arti Decorative in Milan<\/strong>, and in 1935, he took part in the 2nd Quadriennale Nazionale d\u2019Arte in Rome, where the city\u2019s governing body purchased one of his works.<\/p>\n

It was in the late 1930s that Gentilini began to associate with artists of the Roman School<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There was considerable demand for his work among private Italian collectors after World War II, not least because of his participation in numerous exhibitions.<\/p>\n
