Attraction size square, This is a poster for the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City.
The poster features the Olympic rings and the "Mexico 68" logotype, which was created by a design team led by American graphic designer Lance Wyman. The design of the posters and logo combined modern "op art" (optical art) with patterns and motifs from pre-Hispanic Mexican and Huichol folk art, reflecting a blend of old and new Mexico.
The posters for the 1968 Games were produced on a variety of themes, including sports and cultural events, and were printed in various vibrant colors. The specific poster shown, which features doves in the pattern of a tree, is related to the theme of peace, as the 1968 Olympics were designated as "The Games of Peace" |
