Morteza Momayez (1936-2005) was one of Iran’s most esteemed graphic designers. His book jackets, posters, stage design and logos combined Persian precision and worldly wit. I wrote a brief blurb here, years before his admirers and the Momayez Foundation created a new website devoted to his art, design and writing. See a short subtitled video featuring Momayez here. Below are book jackets, record covers and posters.
