George Grosz
The disaster was in progress... As for me, I drew incessantly.
Georg Gross, who in 1916 becomes George Grosz is born in 1893 in Berlin (Germany). He spends his childhood in Pomerania. He studies at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Dresden from 1909 to 1911, then at the School of Arts and Crafts in Berlin from 1912 to 1916. In the early 10, George Grosz publishes caricatures in newspapers and magazines.In 1913, he travels to Paris where he meets the painter . . .

Stamp by George Grosz
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 George Grosz
Sorry this section is only available in french for now.
George Grosz, peintre allemand qui avait pris la nationalité américaine, décide de s'installer à Berlin en juin 1959. Le 6 juillet de cette même année, en rentrant d'une soirée bien arrosée, il meurt à la suite d'une chute dans l'escalier de son immeuble. C’est une porteuse de journaux qui découvrira son corps sans vie. George Grosz est enterré à Berlin, au cimetière Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf, Friedhof Heerstr. Au pied de la pierre levé rouge où il repose, nous déposons, en hommage à sa mémoire, une fleur que nous voulions blanche.
"Dada est plus que Dada." - Raoul Hausmann
"Dans une rue étrange, se glisse, de nuit, une procession diabolique d'êtres qui n'ont plus rien d'humain, sur leurs visages se lisent l'alcool, la syphilis, la peste. L'un souffle dans une trompette, un autre crie "hourra"." - George Grosz
"Nous voulons les choses toutes nues, nous les voulons très claires, presque sans art." - Otto Dix
"Quand Hitler est venu, j’ai eu un sentiment de boxeur ; j'avais perdu et que tous nos efforts avaient été vains." - George Grosz
"Otto Dix, Max Beckmann, George Grosz. Leurs oeuvres reflétaient le chaos économique et moral qu'affrontait la république de Weimar, entre inflation et montée du fascisme." - Annick Colonna-Césari
"Aucun autre artiste allemand, à ce point conscient, n’a utilisé son art comme arme auprès des ouvriers allemands dans l’immédiat après-guerre comme l’a fait George Grosz. Il est le premier artiste en Allemagne qui a consciemment mis tout le poids de son art au service de la société." - Revue Eulenspiegel (1931)
