Stamp by Serge Poliakoff
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 Serge Poliakoff
Sorry this section is only available in french for now.
Serge Poliakoff s’est éteint à Paris, le 12 octobre 1969, alors même qu'il préparait son exposition au Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris, exposition qui aura lieu à titre posthume. Il repose au cimetière russe de St Geneviève des bois (Essonne). Il y a là Antoine Pevsner, André Lanskoy. Notre-Dame-de-l’Assomption, l’église du cimetière, est bâtie dans le style architecturale des églises de Novgorod. En hommage à sa mémoire, un dahlia.
"Pour l'avenir, je mise sur Poliakoff." - Wassily Kandinsky (1937)
"Chaque été, je voyais mon père préparer son équipement léger de peintre et ses cartons à dessins. Cela signifiait pour moi : saison des vacances. Pour Poliakoff, c'était la saison des gouaches." - Alexis Poliakoff, fils du peintre
"La couleur ou la tonalité de la couleur n'importent pas, seule importe la qualité de la couleur." - Serge Poliakoff
"Mon père broyait lui-même ses couleurs ; il avait mis sept ans à découvrir ce qu'il pensait être le secret de leur transparence." - Alexis Poliakoff, fils du peintre
"Technique.. vous pouvez toujours copier.. formidable.. mais la lumière de la couleur.. jamais.. impossible." - Serge Poliakoff
"Pour Serge Poliakoff, l'abstraction n'est pas sécheresse ; la pâte dont il pétrit ses toiles n'est jamais à son gré assez riche pour sa propre richesse." - François Chatelet
