Eric Aho

Eric Aho studied at the Central School of Art and Design in London, England, and received a BFA from the Massachusetts College of Art in Boston. In 1989 he participated in the first exchange of scholars between the U.S. and Cuba in over thirty years. He completed his graduate work at the Lahti Art Institute in Finland supported by a Fulbright Fellowship in 1991-92 and an American-Scandinavian Foundation grant in 1993.

He has quickly become one of the nation's top artists working today. Always fresh and vibrant, his paintings evoke familiarity with a heightened sense of atmosphere. His work is represented in collections throughout the country, including the Metropolitan Museum, New York, NY; the Fleming Museum; the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston; the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco; the Boston Public Library; the New York Public Library; the Ogunquit Museum of American Art and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
