In 1984, the non-profit Tom of Finland Foundation was established by
Durk Dehner and his friend Touko Laaksonen a.k.a. Tom of Finland. As Tom had
established worldwide recognition as the master of homo-erotic art, the
Foundation's original purpose was to preserve his vast catalog of work. Several
years later the scope was widened to offer a safe haven for all erotic art in
response to rampant discrimination against art that portrayed sexual behavior
or generated a sexual response. Today the Foundation continues in its efforts
of educating the public as to the cultural merits of erotic art and in
promoting healthier, more tolerant attitudes about sexuality.
