Chu Teh-Chun
Chinese painting is not in front of nature but inside it.
Chu Teh-Chun was born in 1920 in Jiangsu province, China. Youngest son of a well-to-do family, his father was a collector of traditional Chinese painting. He was admitted in 1935 to the Art Academy of Hangzhou. He was first interested in the traditional style, then he opted for western painting. In 1937, the Chinese-Japanese war provoked the exodus of the universities towards the west of China. . . .

Stamp by Chu Teh-Chun
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 Chu Teh-Chun
Sorry this section is only available in french for now.
Chu Teh-Chun est mort à Paris le 26 mars 2014 ; il avait 93 ans. Il sera inhumé quelques jours plus tard, le lundi 31 mars, au cimetière du Père-Lachaise (39ème division). Les funérailles de l'artiste, premier membre d'origine chinoise de l'Académie des beaux-arts de l'Institut de France, se dérouleront en présence de ses proches, de ses nombreux amis ainsi que des membres de l'Institut de France. En son hommage, cette fleur de Lotus.
"J'ai marché le matin, les traits tirés par la faim, j'ai passé bien des nuits sans trouver le repos de l'esprit, errant sans trêve d'Est en Ouest, de-ci de-là, tel un nuage à la dérive dans le ciel. Dans la guerre civile fut détruite la maison de mon enfance ; de tous ceux de mon sang, beaucoup sont dispersés, beaucoup s'en sont allés." - Chu Teh-Chun
"De Staël fut pour moi une grande révélation. Auparavant, j'étais un peintre objectif, mais à présent je ne m'intéresse plus à cette façon de peindre, parce que, après avoir commencé à étudier la peinture abstraite, j'ai ressenti profondément et avec évidence la liberté d'expression dont elle témoigne." - Chu Teh-Chun
"Regarder une peinture, c'est comme écouter de la musique. Chu Teh-Chun" - Chu Teh-Chun
"Chu Teh-Chun a créé un pays où l'on n'arrive jamais sinon dans ses tableaux. Il a d'ailleurs hésité longtemps avant d'y entrer, puis il s'est décidé à le regarder, à l'écouter, avant de s'en imprégner et de le pénétrer de plus en plus profondément." - Pierre Cabanne
"Je me persuade que Chu Teh-Chun n'est nullement un peintre « abstrait». Il ne peut du tout s'isoler de la saveur du monde." - Hubert Juin
"Le processus créatif de Chu Teh-Chun est une poétique de l'espace naturel." - Jean-Clarence Lambert
