Life
For many years Gagliardi sold imported Italian furniture in London. In 1978 he started the Gagliardi Gallery on the Kings Road in Chelsea; and through it organised the "London Art Biennale" in 2013. Wanting to start an art museum, he chose Chianciano Terme in Italy; he bought 10 vacant shops in the town to be used for the Chianciano Expo.

In 2021 he was accused by the council of Chianciano Terme of defamation for criticisms against the mayor.
