LONDON 2012 OLYMPIC, LTD ED POSTER PRINT 30x40 cm heavy stock. NB This is different to the rolled posters being offered elsewhere, in size, stock and limited numbers of production. Fresh out of the special limited edition'Gold' box edition of prints by British artists made in an edition of 2,012 for the London Olympics and Paralympics. A copy of the COA for the box will be provided. These prints were made by Pyramid international, Leicester. Anthea Hamilton uses sculptural assemblage and collage to create narrative environments.

Characteristically, her approach to narrative uses representations of the human, especially female, body to engage with the history of physical prowess as a dominant subject in her work. Capture a gymnastic pose or gesture that calls to mind the balletic positions held by synchronised swimmers.

The Olympic logo with its five interlocking rings appears to be balanced on the diver's toes, while the background of the print has the watery appearance of a tiled swimming pool. Synchronised swimming is the only Olympic sport exclusively contested by women, and. Evokes the engaging theatricality of this sport, one of the most artistically challenging of the Olympic Games. A Century of Prints in Britain.

This might be the most literal and classically interpretated poster in the bunch. Artist Anthea Hamilton captures the feminine grace and poise that's necessary for a diver, but it's possible that these toned legs actually belong to a synchronized swimmer - the only Olympic sport that is exclusive to women.
