MOMEN
Born in Iran 1934, Momen moved to Germany in the late 1950s and studied art and
architecture there. In Germany he worked for both Max Ernst, one of the masters of
Surrealism, and Le Corbusier, one of Europe’s foremost architects. Momen moved to
Sweden in 1962 and, after establishing himself as a successful architect, began to work
full-time as an artist and sculptor in 1977. Since then his work has been exhibited in
numerous museums and galleries shows and worldwide exhibitions including: Berlin
Cultural Center – Berlin, Moderna Museet - Stockholm, Striped House Museum –
Tokyo, Salt Lake Art Center – UT, Utah Museum of Art – UT., The American Swedish
Museum – Chicago, IL, The Tech Museum of Innovation – San Jose, CA, Nordic
Heritage Museum – Seattle, WA, “Nexus” exhibition at the Krasl Art Center – St.
Joseph, MI, (where it was sponsored by the Michigan Arts Council and the National
Endowment for the Arts), Monte Carlo Biennal’s - (for international scuplture)

His ten-painting suite on the operas of Richard Wagner was by Seattle’s Nordic Heritage
Museum, which plans to add a new wing to the museum for permanent exhibition of this
series of 67” x 67” works. Momen, who holds dual U.S. and Swedish citizenship, currently
lives in Stockholm, Sweden, and frequently works in the U.S.A. at his studio.
