Helsinki Photography Festival 2009 coincides with the 30th Anniversary Year program of Photographic Gallery Hippolyte in Helsinki. Founded in 1978, Photographic Gallery Hippolyte is the oldest gallery in Finland focusing on photo- and lens-based art. During the festival both photography as well as video is presented in the main gallery and the smaller studio space. For its anniversary year, Hippolyte has invited four artists to present work in dialogue. Of these four exhibitions the work of Ulla Jokisalo and Leena Saraste is shown in March. Photographic Gallery Hippolyte is run by the Union of Artist Photographers in Finland – a nonprofit artist-run association with 313 member artists. The Union promotes and supports photo-based art, and the professional, economic and social interests of its members. The Union also organizes festivals and other happenings, including Helsinki Photography Festival, the Triennial of Finnish Photography, as well as the annual Art Fair Suomi.
