ABOUT: “Olympic Football” Official Poster — 1996 Atlanta Centennial Olympic Games By Hiro Yamagata "Olympic Football" (soccer) by internationally acclaimed artist Hiro Yamagata is one of the most energetic and globally resonant posters commissioned for the 1996 Atlanta Centennial Olympic Games, created to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the modern Olympic movement. Through his signature use of vivid color, layered motion, and radiant atmosphere, Yamagata captures the passion, speed, and universal appeal of the world’s most popular sport. The World’s Game in Motion - Football is defined by continuous movement, split-second decision-making, and shared emotion across cultures. Yamagata’s composition emphasizes flow, momentum, and elevation, portraying players in dynamic action as the ball becomes a focal point of energy and anticipation. Rather than realism, the artwork conveys the feeling of the match - the excitement, rhythm, and collective spirit that make football a truly global language. Why This Poster Stands Out: By Renowned Artist Hiro Yamagata Yamagata is internationally known for his optimistic, futuristic aesthetic and large-scale public works. His Olympic posters are among the most collectible and visually distinctive of the Centennial Games.   Football on the Olympic Stage - As the most widely played and followed sport worldwide, football embodies international participation and unity - core Olympic ideals reflected in this artwork.   Centennial Olympic Significance - Produced for the only Olympic Games to celebrate 100 years of modern competition, this poster holds enduring historical and collectible value.   Museum-Quality Contemporary Art - With its bold palette and kinetic composition, Olympic Football functions as both Olympic memorabilia and a standalone work of contemporary fine art. A Global Celebration of the Olympic Game Olympic Football by Hiro Yamagata captures the speed, passion, and unity that define football at the Olympic level. It stands as a bright, optimistic artistic tribute to the world’s game and to the modern, international vision of the Atlanta 1996 Centennial Olympic Games.
