Finnish visual artist Henri Airo critically explores the links between militarism and a collective memory of war in Finland. For those who’ve not lived through it, historical wars often remain obscure events that challenge and defy imagination. The book combines Airo’s photographs made at memorial rituals and museums with historical propaganda images collected from the Finnish Army Image Archive, and vernacular images selected from his private family albums.

This book has been selected as the most beautiful book in Finland of 2024 in the Art and Photography Books category.
