Foundation

The Persons Projects Foundation (PPF) is dedicated to caring for the artistic legacy and estates of artists, with a special focus on the Helsinki School movement. PPF holds the registered trademark for the brand ‘Helsinki School.’ The foundation ensures that artists’ legacies are preserved, promoted, and accessible for future generations, contributing to the protection of cultural and historical heritage. Our mission includes collecting, archiving, and cataloging artworks, documents, notes, photographs, and other materials related to each artist’s creative output, as well as managing copyrights, licenses, and rights associated with the works. 

Founded by Asia Zak Persons, Timothy Persons, Bero Persons, and Dominik Twarog, PPF builds upon decades of experience in the international art world and a long-standing commitment to supporting artists, preserving archives, and advancing the international recognition of the Helsinki School. PPF makes these artistic resources available to the public by organizing exhibitions, shows, openings, publications, and catalogues, as well as by supporting research, education, and other cultural projects. We actively promote and popularize artists’ work, raising awareness of their significance within the art world and among the wider public. 

Through all of these activities, PPF works to ensure that artists’ creations continue to inspire and reach audiences around the world.
