milano cortina 2026 posters hand-painted by italian artists<\/b><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Fondazione Milano Cortina 2026 and Triennale Milano unveil the official <\/span>posters<\/b><\/a> of the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, hand-painted by ten young Italian artists. In collaboration with the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the International Paralympic Committee (IPC), the project, led by Damiano Gull\u00ec, taps ten artists under the age of 40 to interpret the Games through Italian contemporary art, somehow a continuation of the 2023 exhibition Pittura Italiana Oggi (Italian Painting Today). The five Olympic Art Posters were painted by Beatrice Alici, Martina Cassatella, Giorgia Garzilli, Maddalena Tesser, and Flaminia Veronesi, while the five Paralympic Art Posters were created by Roberto de Pinto, Andrea Fontanari, Aronne Pleuteri, Clara Woods, and Giulia Mangoni.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The art posters have represented the cultural significance of the Games since 1972, with artists such as Robert Rauschenberg, Andy Warhol, David Hockney, and Eduardo Chillida presenting theirs in the previous editions. After the unveiling at Triennale Milano on June 18th, 2025, the ten original art posters of the Milano Cortina 2026 remain on site in the newly renovated Piano Parco Galleries until March 15th, 2026, alongside the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games torches, which were previously unveiled in April 2025. The foundation adds that in the coming months, the team and Triennale Milano, plans to announce a calendar of events focusing on sport, art, and society.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Each of the posters has its own meaning, referring both to the Olympic and Paralympic Winter <\/span>Games<\/b><\/a> of Milano Cortina 2026 as well as the Italian scene and culture. For Giorgia Garzilli, it\u2019s the pleasure of gelato as she stacks up the five circular rings on a cone, a reminder to the athletes and sports enthusiasts to have fun while competing. The mountains around Italy appear as the backdrop of Beatrice Alici’s art poster, hinting at the Games as a mythical stage. Here, the athletes present the physical effort in their respective sports, all the while suspended in space and a dreamlike scenery. Nature is also the focus of Maddalena Tesser’s vibrant artwork, alongside the splash of colors. For the artist, the shades of blue, black, red, yellow, and green against the white canvas come together to form a landscape inspired by the Dolomites and a figure of a woman dreaming.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Her hair falls, creating the shape of a piste, which circles back to the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games of Milano Cortina 2026. Dreaming is also a central theme in Flaminia Veronesi\u2019s art poster, where a woman daydreams while immersed in colorful soap bubbles depicting the Olympic rings. Figures appear in their athletic stances, and in one bubble, there\u2019s an image of a hybrid flying dragon, which is a cross between the biscione, or the symbol of Milan, and the Dolomites of the Milano Cortina 2026. Then comes the fiery art poster of Martina Cassatella, where two intertwined hands merge into a flame, evoking the Olympic torch. For the artist, fire is an element of renewal and transformation, of a driving energy filtering through the spirits of the athletes as they play their sports.<\/span><\/p>\n

Away from nature and dreams, the art posters of the Milano Cortina 2026\u2019s Paralympic Games focus more on people and their attributes. In Andrea Fontanari\u2019s artwork, colorful brushstrokes form two figures that help and carry each other to the finish line, a strong reminder that <\/span>\u2018every small act of altruism can ignite a spark and inspire real change,\u2019 <\/span><\/i>the artist says.<\/b> Deconstructing the stereotypical body shapes using Microsoft Paint marks the art poster of Aronne Pleuteri, resulting in a canvas filled with abstract and uncontrollable whirls. These swirling lines also visit the artwork of Roberto de Pinto, where he personifies a Paralympic athlete who braves challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In his canvas, the snowdrop, a flower typically found in the Italian mountains at the end of wintertime, comes through, a symbol of strength for the artist because it manages to pierce the cold snow cover and bloom. These themes of resilience and strength show up in Clara Woods\u2019 Milano Cortina 2026 art poster named \u2018Your Love.\u2019 For the artist, sports, like life, is an event where <\/span>\u2018we fall, we rise, we cheer for each other, and we keep going,\u2019<\/span><\/i> she says.<\/b> The series concludes with Giulia Mangoni\u2019s artwork, which draws from a photograph of the China-Sweden wheelchair curling final at the Beijing 2022 Paralympics. The athlete raises her arms in joy and victory, and the artist reiterates celebrating every athletic achievement, topping it off with the phrase, <\/span>\u2018victory is more than just a moment.\u2019<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
