I have worked as a designer with several Finnish top photographers since the mid-1960s. Usually I have operated as the designer of images, Art Director, because I used photographs in posters from the very start of my career. Good photographs make the posters into permanent monuments of visual design of their time. I have had the honour of cooperating with many masters: Matti A. Pitkänen, Otso Pietinen, Boris Fehrman, Jussi Pohjakallio, Ismo Hölttö, Kaj G. Lindholm, Osmo Thiel, Ilmari Kostiainen, Arto Hallakorpi, Kari Haavisto, Pirjo Honkasalo - to name but a few. Besides my work, I have also taken photographs. All photographs in this exhibition were taken in my cabin in Suontee, Joutsa, on the first day of 2017. If you want to see more of my photos, watch the video Art On Ice.
