Stamp by Pierre Soulages
The publication of a postal stamp is often a homage paid by a nation to a place, an event, a remarkable cause or a character which count. The painters and other artists do not escape from this rule. Some are however "forgotten" of postal art. Here, gathered below (French or foreign), emitted stamps (206) or simple studies of stamp (224) in homage to the artists represented on our website. The first French stamp was emitted in 1849, England preceded us by ten years. There is often a share of voyage in this small form of shape paper. The stamp circulates, sails, flies away, it makes dream, then dream a little. M.C.
When the stamp is really emitted, the artist name is preceded of an asterisk (*).
It is certain that we do not know each stamp emitted for such or such artist; do not hesitate with us to make known them!

It is what I find who tells me for what I look. Pierre Soulages
A tribute to Pierre Soulages
Pierre Soulages est décédé au centre hospitalier de Nïmes au le mardi 25 octobre à l’âge de 102 ans. Sa mort advient le jour de la célébration de ses noces de chêne (80 ans de mariage) avec son épouse Colette, alors âgée de 101 ans. Pierre Soulages a reçu un hommage national présidé par Emmanuel Macron dans la cour carrée du Louvre à Paris, mercredi 2 novembre 2022. Il a été inhumé le vendredi 4 novembre au cimetière Montparnasse. Avec respect, ce coquelicot.
"Enfant, on m’offrait des couleurs, mais je préférais le noir." - Pierre Soulages
"Vous peignez avec du noir et du blanc, vous prenez la peinture par les cornes, c'est-à-dire par la magie." - Joseph Delteil
"Un graphisme simple, viril, presque rude, des harmonies sombres et chaudes, un sens naturel de la pâte et des possibilités spécifiques de la peinture à l’huile, et surtout, peut-être un son à la fois humain et concret, voilà l’apport de Soulages à la peinture abstraite." - Charles Estienne (1949)
"Ce que je voulais faire avec mon encre, c’était rendre le blanc du papier encore plus blanc, plus lumineux, comme la neige /.../ Je ne représente pas, je présente. Je ne dépeins pas, je peins." - Pierre Soulages
"L'art de Soulages se fonde sur des approfondissements, des processus d’intensification concentrés dans des phases de création très ramassées. " - Pierre Daix
"La toile de Spierre Soulages fonctionne dans sa matérialité noire texturée comme une image à produire l'infinie variation de son image lumineuse au gré du parcours de la lumière et du regard." - Pierre Encrevé
