Olympic Games/ summer, 2024/ Paris. Very original, provocative poster in defense of booksellers by Numa Roda Gil: "A healthy body is enough, don't read, Paris 2024 (rings)...". Numbered in pencil by the artist 14/50. The divine goddess lighting the sacred torch at Olympia is surrounded by the industrial "descendants" of the Marathon sandal-makers...70x50. Silkscreen print. This image and other actions will help the booksellers to win their case, and stay in their place with their boxes for the opening ceremony of the Games on the Seine. Highly curious.
