He was born in Salerno in 1928 not far from the Amalfi Coast and began painting in the wake of the Posillipo School, following the road marked by the Dutch Pitloo, Giacinto Gigante and the Palizzi brothers. In 1949 he completed his studies begun with Della Rocca in Cava dei Tirreni and in 1956 he moved to Turin where he came into contact with new cultures, Milan, Paris, Barcelona, Picasso and the new trends in contemporary art. From impressionism in "plein aire" to the post-impressionism of the Fauves, to the experiences of abstract art and informal art. He participates in numerous national and foreign reviews, awarded several times. His works are present in many Italian and foreign collections (United States, Canada, Australia, Germany, Switzerland, France). He is the Founder and President of the S. Rita International Academy. His painting moves within suggestive intuitions of aesthetic renewal, in a continuous and sensitive personal research, his themes extend over fields of various values: space, life, nature, mysticism. Always aimed at the effort of a construction, alert, without intimistic excesses and dangerous alienations. In his compositions, colour penetrates visual reality, making it thicker, becoming both reality and event at the same time. Farina sometimes resorts to different solutions using collages, strips of coloured cardboard, strips of masonite, plastic plates, silver papers, assemblages of canvases, all subjected to the need for a painting that is still colour. In this way, each composition acquires a highly individual key and becomes a reason for meditation for the viewer " There are numerous reviews in which Armando Farina has participated and the awards that have been attributed to him.
