The 1972 Munich Olympic Games was supported, for the first time, by an advertising campaign using posters with strong individual designs created by the great Pop Artists of the day, such as David Hockney, Serge Paliokov, Allen Jones and Max Bill.
In the year of the London 2012 Games, this exhibition shows 19 of these posters as part of our Olympic celebrations. To see a slideshow of some of these stunning posters on the BBC website just click here.
