Mohsen Vaziri Moghaddam is an Iranian modernist painter and Geometric Abstract Artist who was active and held exhibitions until the last years of his life. Vaziri Moghaddam experienced oil painting for the first time at the age of 16 and learned the art of painting through academic education at his young age. Although he was struggling with financial issues during his education, his life became smoother. His first solo exhibition was held in 1952 in the Iran-US Association. In 1955, he left for Italy and studied art in a new style at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rome and was able to achieve his own form then. He returned to his homeland a few years later and lectured at the Faculty of Fine Arts in the University of Tehran from 1969 to 1976. He spent the last years of his life in Italy and died there.

His first appearance at the auctions dates back to May 2006 at the Christie's Auction House. Mohsen Vaziri Moghaddam was one of the most prominent artists of the second generation of modern Iranian painters who was able to create many works with a modernist style and tried to teach this style to future generations. Using new unique methods, he created artworks which formed a new perspective on modern art in Iran. For example, his collection of paintings, which was formed with black sand on wood and canvas, created a new style in Iranian art with his signature. This modern POV was well reflected in other works he created, such as a large collection of wooden sculptures with moving appearance. 

He said about his opinion in an academic education in art: "Students have been taught nothing in art schools. Art should be taught, not a speech for a painting student. A few minutes about mysticism and play some music and then say go and paint your feelings! The students must be taught properly. Art streams and styles should be taught and they should be sent to field research. There must be a proper space for learning. A good environment and space shall be needed for learning.”
