According Ugo Moretti "Farinelli is finding the artist's painting: his aesthetic sense prevails on the issues of concept: he is not indifferent and does not ignore their difficulties, but the impetuous temperament as a color, bright, brilliant, led him to solve the most difficult experiments in the balance between the abstract and the figurative, the informal and the realism. He is love of beauty and therefore willing to compromise with any ideas, provided that there is beauty in every frame, in every color. "
