This is what CAFKA says about Finch:

"Spencer Finch, in truly revolutionary fashion, manifests traditional ideas in shockingly new ways, employing scientific method to a poetic end. In a tradition that leads back to the Impressionists working in the late nineteenth century, artists have strived to depict the light surrounding objects, instead of depicting the objects as they are. A contemporary mash-up of Monet’s Water Lilies and Dan Flavin’s fluorescent tubes, Finch’s installations are neither purely pictorial nor conceptual but more like nature itself – beautiful and fascinating."

Should be good.
