Magne Furuholmen (born 1 November 1962) is a Norwegian musician and visual artist.[1] Also known by his stage name Mags, he is the keyboardist of the synthpop/rock band A-ha and co-wrote hits such as "Take On Me", "Stay on These Roads", "Manhattan Skyline", "Cry Wolf", "Forever Not Yours", "Analogue (All I Want)", "Minor Earth Major Sky", "Touchy!", "You Are the One", "Move To Memphis" and "Foot of the Mountain". A-ha has sold more than 50 million albums worldwide.[2] He was named Knight First Class of the Order of St. Olav by King Harald for his services to Norwegian music and his international success.[3][4]

Furuholmen is also a visual artist with solo exhibitions held in Norway, the UK, and elsewhere in Europe.[5] His work is represented in private and public institutions and museums worldwide, among them The Norwegian State Archives, Bibliothèque Nationale de France, and others.[6][7] In 2016 Magne Furuholmen undertook his biggest commission to date and created the largest ceramic sculpture park in Scandinavia titled "Imprints", which is located in Fornebu outside Oslo.[8][9] In 2017 the University of Agder in Norway nominated five new honorary doctors in connection with the university's 10th anniversary. The degree was awarded for significant scientific or artistic efforts. Magne Furuholmen was one of the recipients.[10]
