Tokyo 2020 Official Art Posters Exhibition features posters created for the Olympic and Paralympic Games by international graphic designers, photographers and artists.

The special exhibition will be hosted at the Museum of Contemporary Art in the Japanese capital.

The games, held in Tokyo for a second time after the city hosted the 1964 event, will take place in July and August and the excitement across the globe is building.

Taku Satoh, as reported by Design Week, a Japanese graphic designer, has produced a hand-drawn, abstract image featuring the five Olympic rings, in one of the pieces.

As well, calligrapher Shoko Kanazawa, has created a piece called ‘Fly High!’ which is said to represent the “energy of athletes”.
