After completing his secondary studies, Giovanni Galli first worked as a cosmetics and perfume sales representative for his father’s company, then moved from one precarious job to another. After the death of his parents, the first psychological disorders appeared and quickly worsened.
Committed to a specialized institution in 1993, he joined La Tinaia the following year, where he devoted himself to drawing, a passion that had animated him since childhood (perhaps under the influence of his father, an amateur painter).
Close to comic-strip aesthetics, most of his compositions cover both the front and back of the sheets: one side is populated with lightly dressed women in suggestive poses alongside military or space machines; the other side, probably created in his residential facility, is generally more restrained.
