Although the plot shows properly in the notebook, I can confirm that it disappears when exporting the result of Show[g1,g3] as a PDF. To fix this, you could try the following modification:
g3 = Plot3D[-1, {x, 0, Pi}, {y, 0, Pi}, Mesh -> None,
TextureCoordinateFunction -> ({#1, #2} &),
PlotStyle -> Directive[Texture[ImageData@Rasterize[g2, "Image"]]]];
This is a bug, and the use of ImageData above is a work-around.
