Alekos Fassianos
An artist has no problems beyond those provoked by his excessive sensitivity.
Alekos Fassianos was born in Athens in 1935. He studies at the Fine Arts School from 1956 till 1960 with Yannis Moralis. He gets a scholarship from the French government and settles in Paris (1960-1963). He studies lithographic technics at the Fine Arts School in Paris. He then meets major artists and writers. Louis Aragon comments his works and later Jean-Marie Drot will write his monography . . .

Stamp by Alekos Fassianos
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 Alekos Fassianos
Sorry this section is only available in french for now.
Des suites d’une longue maladie, le peintre grec Alekos Fassianos est décédé dans son sommeil le dimanche 16 janvier 2022, il avait 86 ans. L'artiste, connu pour ses personnages de la mythologie et du folklore grecs, a été inhumé dans le quartier nord d'Athènes, au cimetière de Papagou. Le Premier ministre Kyriakos Mitsotakis et la ministre de la Culture faisaient partie des quelques centaines de personnes qui ont assisté à la cérémonie. En son hommage, avec respect, ce narcisse blanc.
"Ce que je connais, c’est la Grèce, le ciel est bleu, alors je peins en bleu, je connais les îles grecques, la mer, les vagues…" - Alekos Fassianos
"Il détruisait ce qu’il n’aimait pas. Je pleurais, mais il savait mieux que moi ce qu’il fallait garder." - Mariza Fassianos (sa femme)
"Pour ceux qui l’ont connu et aimé, il restera l’ami chaleureux, lumineux qui aimait nous inviter à déguster des oursins sur une plage sauvage. Il les pêchait et les préparait avec la délicatesse d’un pêcheur grec. J’aimais son humour, bien à lui, il était résolument caustique contre la bêtise, la vulgarité des idées et des faits." - Costa-Gavras
"Fassianos habite un pays mythique qui se situe mal sur la carte, mais est voué à la clarté éblouissante du soleil, aux parfums des fleurs, au bruissement du vent tourbillonnant autour des oiseaux dont le plumage est couleur d'arc-en-ciel. " - Pierre Cabanne
"Fassianos peint ses femmes et ses hommes dans des poses insouciantes - en train de fumer, de marcher, allongés ou à bicyclette, faisant le tour du quartier - mais la position statufiée des corps les métamorphose en une image obsessionnelle surgie du passé. Ces personnages immobiles attendent comme dans la légende d'être animés par le prince-spectateur." - Haris Kambouridis
"on art exprime mon impression personnelle de la terre grecque, où j'ai vécu et que j'ai vécu profondément. Et c'est pourquoi je crois que l'art de cette terre se répercutera dans le monde entier, non pas parce qu'il est grec mais parce que la vérité de cette localité est unique et inimitable. Et c'est quelque chose d'intéressant pour le monde entier." - Alekos Fassianos
