🏅 Barcelona ’92 – 1990 – Original Poster by Guillermo Pérez Villalta Official art poster for the Games of the XXV Olympiad, Barcelona | Offset lithograph | 70 × 50 cm | Spain 🎬 Introduction Guillermo Pérez Villalta distills the Barcelona coast into a serene, classically inflected vignette: a crouching male nude, modeled with rigorous draftsmanship, turns in profile atop a stone plinth against a pale Mediterranean sky. Two distant bathers and a ribboned staff punctuate the scene, adding a whisper of motion and chroma. The image is framed by a deep ultramarine border carrying the Barcelona ’92 wordmark and multilingual titling, a formal, institutional counterpoint to the intimate, painterly center. Signed with the artist’s “G.P.V.” monogram and dated 1990 within the image, the poster belongs to the Cultural Olympiad program that invited contemporary Spanish artists to articulate the Games’ broader cultural identity in the lead-up to 1992. ✨ Why It Matters This edition exemplifies how Barcelona ’92 reframed Olympic graphics through fine art. Pérez Villalta bridges classical figuration and late‑20th‑century postmodern sensibility—athletic in reference yet introspective in mood—yielding crossover appeal for collectors of Olympic history, Spanish contemporary art, and design. The trilingual footer marks an international distribution, while the clear 1990 imprint situates it among the early pre‑Games releases. Sponsor credit along the left margin reflects the corporate patronage that helped define the unified visual language of the Games. Within the Barcelona ’92 art poster series, this sheet is sought after for its poised balance of academic draftsmanship and cool Mediterranean modernity. 📐 Poster Details - Year: 1990 - Country: Spain - Size: 70.00 × 50.00 cm - Format: Approx. 50 × 70 cm (portrait) - Studio / Publisher: COOB S.A.
