Masoud Sadedin was born in Semnan, Iran, in 1956 and graduated in 1980 from the Faculty of Fine Arts, Tehran University. In 1986 he immigrated to Germany, since then he works as a freelance artist and lecturer.

His work has been shown at numerous exhibitions, international art fairs and major exhibitions in Germany and abroad. In addition to painting, Sadedin is involved as an author of performance and theater plays as well as texts on the visual arts. “I want to do some kind of constructivism, but it’s emotionally charged. I am interested in the boundary between spiritual-emotional and an opposite pictorial construction. I usually start with a constructive attitude. But soon the seduction of the destructive begins. The depicted disturbs the painting and vice versa. The representation of this contradiction between painting and motif is the actual stimulus and my motivation for art.”

Masoud Sadedin lives and works in Troisdorf and has a studio in the Kunsthaus Troisdorf. Visit by appointment
