About the Item

The French Open, also known as Roland-Garros, is a tennis tournament organised by the French Tennis Federation annually at Stade Roland Garros in Paris, France. The French Tennis Federation and the Roland-Garros Championships Committee began a long-standing relationship with contemporary art in 1980 when they sought to create a connection between the competitive Tennis world, and the competitive art world. They partnered with Galerie Lelong & Co. to commission artists from around the world to create inspiring posters for the event. Jiri Kolar was both a poet and and artist, in this poster for the 1986 Championship, Kolar combines his love of the written word with collage skills. The background features a map superimposed over tournament press clippings as a way of capturing the international nature of the sport.
