PARIS -- After the success of the official iconic posters for the Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games, the Paris 2024 organizing committee announced on Monday that they would once again collaborate with illustrator Ugo Gattoni to launch a night celebration version of the official posters, limited to 2,024 copies.
In March, the daytime version of the official poster for the Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games was released. Featuring the Olympic Games on the left and the Paralympic Games on the right, the poster includes many iconic elements of Paris and showcases all the sports at the upcoming Games.
The upcoming nocturnal version of the posters will be available for online sales starting July 25, the day before the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.
In this limited edition, new reflections, new lighting effects and fireworks are added to the poster. According to organizers, the posters have all been printed in France in 70x100 cm format on "fine art" paper by a Paris 2024 official licensee printer Oneart, and will be sold for 200 euros each.
"Around Christmas time in 2023, as I was still working on the Paris 2024 iconic posters, I unintentionally reversed the colors of the drawing, and that created a nocturnal atmosphere with a tinge of neon. Inspired by this handling mistake, I started creating a new version of the poster, changing each color one by one, thus revealing some unexpected secrets of the drawing and paying homage to the beauty of Parisian nights," said Gattoni.
