Morteza Momayez (1936-2005) was a Tehran-based graphic designer of posters, covers, logos, and books.  He was the most honored of a large number of exceptionally talented Iranian designers and typographers.  We in the U.S. are sometimes myopic when it comes to non-western design.  International design is equally — if not more — important than what’s done in the US.   We have to learn to open our eyes.
