Franco Testa was born, and works, in Ascoli Piceno. Having graduated from the Ascoli Piceno Institute of Arts and having qualified for teaching, he spent several years as a teacher of Plastic Decoration in Castelli, in L'Aquila and in Ascoli Piceno.

Franco Testa has taken part in several exhibitions in Italy and abroad with high praises for the originality of his proposals.
