Bram Van Velde
The deep pain of an artist, forces him to give more sense to a world full of lies.
Bram Van Velde was born in 1895 to Zoeterwoude (Holland). Self-taught, he was very young enticed by the painting. When he was twelve years old, second of four children of a poor family, he worked as apprentice in a painting and decoration Atelier.

Stamp by Bram Van Velde
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 Bram Van Velde
Sorry this section is only available in french for now.
Bram Van Velde décède le 28 décembre 1981 à Grimaud (Var), près de Saint-Tropez ; il avait 86 ans. L’artiste repose dans le magnifique cimetière principal d’Arles auprès de son ami Jacques Putman, qui l'aura soutenu depuis son départ de chez Maeght en 1953 et pendant le reste de sa carrière. En son hommage, la fleur d’une misère sauvage.
"Être un artiste c'est échouer comme nul autre n'ose échouer, l'échec constitue l’univers de Bram Van Velde." - Jean-Luc Godard
"(Pendant les années de guerre) j'allais dans les beaux quartiers ramasser les mégots. J'en bourrais ma pipe et je m'asseyais pour regarder mes anciens tableaux. " - Bram Van Velde
"La peinture est une chose toute bête, toute simple. Je peins pour me sortir du trou. Je peins ma misère." - Bram Van Velde
"On ne peut rien maîtriser du tout. Ce qu'il fait, c'est se laisser dominer." - Bram Van Velde
"Je cherche à voir. Alors que tout, dans ce monde, nous empêche de voir." - Bram Van Velde
