Name
At the end of the 1960s, he gained notability co-producing, together with Ture Sjölander and Lars Weck, the experimental video performances Monument (1968) and Space in the Brain (1969), both made for Swedish Television. In addition to video performances, he worked with static images of science fiction and space travel, as well as a number of monumental paintings. In 1972, Inge created the photographic work Glesbygdare, and in 1973 Kronotorpare. Later, Inge worked with computerized holographic art, notably The Expanded Cube, which was performed at art galleries in the United States, Japan, and Taiwan. In the 1970s, he also worked with laser installations. Married to Rut Astrid Häggström in 1961–1967; they had no children. Inge worked and lived in Stockholm until his death in 2008.
Sven Inge was born Sven Inge Höglund. He was the son of Karl Hellström and Gulli Maria Höglund. In 1995, he changed his surname to Demonér (sometimes incorrectly cited as De Monér). However, as an artist, he was best known as Sven Inge; hence in 2006, he registered his middle name Inge as his new surname.
