Stamp by Louise Nevelson
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!

"Je veux devenir sculpteur et je ne veux pas l’aide de la couleur." - Louise Nevelson
"J'ai vu mes premiers Picasso et cela m'a donné une définition de la structure du monde. " - Louise Nevelson
"Je pourrais être une feuille sur l'arbre à Paris, mais je pourrais être l'arbre entier en Amérique. " - Louise Nevelson
"Les sculptures de Nevelson traitent du mythe et du mystère et, bien qu'elle se soit inspirée des motifs du monde qui l'entoure, elle a déclaré s'identifier aux idées plus qu'à la nature." - Virginia M. Mecklenburg
"Le noir n'était pas une négation de couleur. C'était une acceptation. Parce que le noir englobe toutes les couleurs" - Louise Nevelson
"Si un objet est au bon endroit, il est amélioré par la grandeur. Plus que cela, cela plaît à l'être intérieur et cela, je pense, est très important. Cela équivaut à l'harmonie." - Louise Nevelson
