ABOUT: “Grace and Power” Official Poster — 1996 Atlanta Centennial Olympic Games By Charly Palmer - "Grace and Power" by acclaimed American artist Charly Palmer is one of the most emotionally resonant and symbolically rich posters commissioned for the 1996 Atlanta Centennial Olympic Games, created to honor the 100th anniversary of the modern Olympic movement. The work captures the dual essence of athletic excellence - elegance and strength, poise and force - while celebrating the dignity and determination of the human spirit. A Powerful Balance of Movement and Meaning - Palmer’s composition reflects a dynamic balance between fluid grace and explosive power, conveying the discipline, control, and intensity required at the highest level of competition. The athlete is portrayed not merely as a physical presence, but as a symbol of inner strength, confidence, and perseverance. Through expressive color, form, and movement, the artwork elevates athletic performance into a broader statement about human potential and resilience. Why This Poster Stands Out: By Renowned Artist Charly Palmer - Palmer is widely recognized for his ability to combine narrative depth with bold visual expression. His Olympic commission reflects his mastery of portraying strength, identity, and motion with authenticity and impact.   Centennial Olympic Significance - Created for the only Olympic Games to celebrate 100 years of modern competition, this poster carries exceptional historical importance.   A Universal Athletic Theme - "Grace and Power" speaks across sports and disciplines, symbolizing the balance every elite athlete must achieve between control and force.   Museum-Quality Fine Art - The expressive composition and layered symbolism allow this poster to function equally as Olympic memorabilia and as a standalone work of fine art.
