About Me
- Michael Finnegan
- Michael completed his undergraduate studies at Notre Dame College in Manchester NH where he studied Graphic Design and Illustration. He worked in education for a few years out of college before attending The Art Institute of Boston at Lesley University’s MFA program beginning in 2006. During his tenure there, Michael focused his interests on painting and contemporary photography. His first big exhibition was the Boston Young Contemporaries show in July of 2007. Critic Cate McQuaid, a Boston Globe Correspondent, said in an article she wrote on July of 2007, “Painter/ printmaker Michael Finnegan calls his works ‘oil-on-canvas monotypes.’ He uses paint, not ink, and prints on canvas to create, in his ‘September Wedding’ series, elusive and deliciously textured scenes.” He teaches painting classes for Brookline and Medway Adult Education and has taught Pre-College at the Art Institute of Boston at Lesley University. Recently, Michael spent the majority of 2010 organizing and curating an MFA Alumni Show with 82 artists from all around the world. He currently is the Coordinator for a non-profit After School program in Newton, MA and a board member for The Medway Cultural Council.
