Manuel Finol is a visual artist by vocation, study and commitment, a cultural promoter by conviction and dedication. Son of Zulia of proven reciprocal love. He wanted to be a painter and to get it started entering the School of Plastic Arts of Maracaibo. There he had as teachers, among others, Carlos De Solaeche, Rubén Suárez and Víctor Valera. Venezuelan art ran for the time in which that group of students in Paris created the movement called Los Disidentes, whose air impregnated desires for renewal in decadent art academies, especially in Caracas and later in Maracaibo. Driven by these events and the fact that the School of Arts of Zulia was going through a period of stagnation and abandonment, some students, led by Manuel Finol, José Fajardo, Eduardo Morán and Régulo Díaz, raised their disagreement with the Ministry of Education , ascription body for that time. It was in 1951. Promises of investigation and attention to the approach that were not met resulted in the expulsion of qualified claimants students of insurgents. The Free Zulia Art Workshop was born, organized by those same students, inspired by the experience of the School of Caracas, which had already expressed its rejection of academic practices without renewal. Although they did not proclaim any manifesto, there is no doubt that Taller Libre marked the course of Manuel Finol as an artist, free of thought and action, reflective before the changes, open-minded to the new proposals, in which he ventured without clinging to them . In 1954 he entered the School of Plastic Arts "Cristóbal Rojas" of Caracas, where he had as teachers Pedro Ángel González, Ernesto Maragall and Francisco Narváez. He returned the landscape as an academic practice, drawing as a method and sculpture as an element of practical expression. Of this time are his works Tolstoy, David, Ramses, Beethoven.
