He was a pupil of the painter José Marced Furió. He studied at the San Carlos School of Fine Arts in Valencia from 1940 to 1944. After leaving the School of Fine Arts, he spent several years making reproductions of masterworks by Velázquez, Goya, Rubens, and Murillo, among others. He also spent several years balancing reproductions with painting on pottery and painting movie posters. He has carried out several restorations on religious themes in the side domes of the Parish Church of Nuestra Señora de Lepanto in Castellar (Valencia), as well as the execution of two murals of six square meters each on the sides of the High Altar of the same parish, and also a reproduction in the Sanctrary (Tabernacle) of the High Altar of El Salvador by Juan de Juanes, and an icon of the Virgin of Perpetual Help on 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 the Rosary located on the right wing of the church. Moreover, Alberto Gisbert has held numerous exhibitions of his works in illustrious art galleries in Valencia and Madrid, among others. He has combined his painting with work retouching photographs with charcoal in his own studio. Due to vision problems and back issues 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 age 86, on July 12, 2009, when a still life remained unfinished in his studio.
