About GOPO 7 ARTS - Grand Prix Tours (France) 1958

50 years ago, during the Film Festival in Tours (France), „7 Arts“, a cartoon movie made by Ion Popescu-Gopo, won the Grand Prix. In order to remember this major event for the Romanian cinematography, Romfilatelia releases the postage stamp issue GOPO „7 ARTS“, Grand Prix in Tours (France) 1958.

Born in Bucharest in 1923, Ion Popescu-Gopo made his entrance by publishing caricatures in the local press as soon as he was 16. He attended the classes of the Academy of Fine Arts in Bucharest, which he never graduated, but instead he did graduate an animation course in Moscow.
