René Char
"In our darkness, there is no place for the Beauty. All the place is for the Beauty."

Stamp by René Char
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!

A tribute to René Char
Sorry this section is only available in french for now.
Il avait écrit : « L'éclair me dure. La poésie me volera de la mort ». Foudroyé par une crise cardiaque, René Char s'éteint à Paris le 19 février 1988 ; il avait 81 ans. L’immense poète repose dans la sépulture familiale du petit cimetière de l’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, Vaucluse (allée n°1 du cimetière). Pour lui, en son hommage et avec respect, un lierre en fleurs.
"Char est l'homme de la liberté et de la solitude, mais d'une solitude un peu apprivoisée ; il est aussi l'homme de l'approfondissement. Il creuse aussi droit qu'il peut, aussi loin qu'il a la force." - José Corti
"A tous les repas pris en commun, nous invitons la liberté à s’asseoir. La place demeure vide mais le couvert reste mis." - René Char
"La foudre n’a qu’une maison, elle a plusieurs sentiers." - René Char
"Vous regardez les choses en face et vous avez le pied ferme. Tout l’héroïsme est là." - Georges Braque
"Au plus fort de l’orage, il y a toujours un oiseau pour nous rassurer. C’est l’oiseau inconnu. Il chante avant de s’envoler." - René Char
"L'éternité n'est guère plus longue que la vie." - René Char

Artists on display
The art and the artists display: proclamations, galleries, museums, personal or collective exhibitions. On walls or in shop windows, wise or rebels, posters warn, argue, show. Some were specially conceived by an artist for such or such event, other, colder, have only the letter.
Some were created in lithographic technic, most are simple offset reproductions. They are many those who like collecting these rectangles of paper, monochrome or in games of colours, in matt paper or brilliant, with many words or almost dumb.
We are happy also to be able to greet, by this pages, mythical galleries as those of Denise René, Louis Carré, Claude Bernard, Berheim Jeune, Maeght, Pierre Loeb and others.
