The AHO & SOLDAN Photo and Film Foundation, Helsinki, Finland aims to foster and make Finnish historical photography and film known, especially the pioneering Finnish photographers and filmmakers, Heikki Aho (1895-1961), Björn Soldan (1902-1953), Claire Aho (1925-2015) and the film production company Aho & Soldan.

Heikki Aho and Björn Soldan were among the leading photographers and documentary filmmakers of their time. Their father was author and journalist Juhani Aho (1861-1921), married to artist Venny Soldan-Brofeldt (1863-1945) – the “artist couple” of their era. In 1924 Heikki and Björn established their legendary production company AHO & SOLDAN, producing well over 400 films and laying the foundations for the Finnish documentary tradition.

Heikki’s daughter Claire Aho, “The Grand Old Lady of Finnish Photography” - who received her first camera from her father at the age of 10 - joined Aho & Soldan in the late 1940´s. Having opened her own commercial studio she became a pioneer of colour photography and was especially active in the 1950s and 1960s. Claire´s photographs, full of wit, taken some 60-70 years ago, could well have been taken today. They are a delightful display of Claire's ‘Selective Eye’, her sense of composition, her humour, but above all her acute sense of colour. Find out more at ahosoldanfoundation.org
