Born in Umbria, while still a child he left the places of his childhood and moved to Castelfidardo to continue his studies. Here, in an uncle's house, he met a painter, a family friend, who, observing some of his children's drawings, sensed his good natural aptitude in the use of signs and colors and encouraged him, also personally following him, to study them in depth.
As an adolescent he moved to Rome, going to live in Via del Governo Vecchio where he would reside for a long time. During this period he met and began to frequent groups of artists who orbited around Piazza Navona.
Curious to learn and a lover of beauty in all its expressions, he immersed himself with youthful enthusiasm in the world of art and culture in general. He took part in cultural salons, frequented evenings at the "Scaletta" in Via dell'Anima and the Caffè Greco, and followed the literary meetings of Ungaretti and illustrious exponents of the contemporary artistic world. In this way he had the opportunity to approach men of letters, painters, sculptors who contributed to his cultural and artistic maturation and to establish cordial friendships with important figures including the maestro Oberdan Petrini, a great composer, and professor Barz whose gallery he would become a regular visitor to.
In 1957 Finocchioli moved to Reggio Emilia and returned to Rome at the end of 1959.
This was the period in which Rome entered a climate of artistic ferment that brought it to the center of art. Numerous galleries began to open between Via del Babuino, Via Margutta, Via Sistina, Piazza di Spagna.
Finocchioli was present and a participant in this climate, fascinated by the stimulating atmosphere that the city was experiencing at the time. The 1960s were for Finocchioli an intense period of research into his own expressive and chromatic identity.
In the search for a pictorial expression that best represented his intimate feelings, he was attracted by the techniques and themes of the greats and of some who particularly stimulated him, including Stanislao Preti, Lanfranco, Leonor Fini.
The meeting with the master De Chirico, in whose pictorial movement Finocchioli finds his most authentic artistic form. He has participated in exhibitions and shows with Guttuso, Mirò, Dalì, Jan Calogero, Ciabatta, Omiccioli, De Chirico.
Since 1970 Finocchioli has been one of the "100 painters Via Margutta", an art association born in '54 as an art fair, promoted by the Municipality of Rome, which gave and still gives artists the opportunity to exhibit their works, directly in contact with the public in one of the most suggestive and artistic streets of the Capital, Via Margutta.
In 1974 Finocchioli together with two artist friends founded the Art Studio Tre, a studio that immediately aroused much interest among the public and critics.
In 1989 the partnership, receiving the approval of artists and critics, constitutes an association that will take its name from the studio itself, it will be called AST (Associazione Arte Studio Tre) with it the "Re di Roma" exhibition is born that gathers around it young talents and Finocchioli is the vice President.
In addition to the periodic exhibitions made every year together with the Associazione Cento Pittori via Margutta of which he is an Ordinary member and Arte Studio Tre of which he is a founding member, we remember the following personal and collective exhibitions. (Bio sourced from Romart)
