2012 Roland-Garros magnet by Hervé DI ROSA

The official 2012 Roland-Garros poster, created by French artist Hervé Di Rosa, puts the tennis ball at the center of attention, presenting it as the true shooting star of the tournament. According to Di Rosa, "it is the ball we follow in tennis, more than the players," and he makes it the focal point of a vibrant, indulgent, and warm composition. Founder of the Musée des Arts Modestes, Di Rosa offers one of the most colorful posters in the collection here, populated by voluptuous mouths, expressive eyes, and little characters. Nourished by comic strips, vivid colors, and the forms brought back from his many travels, this work reflects the diversity and richness of his influences. The 2012 poster perfectly embodies the festive, popular, and universal spirit of Roland-Garros, while paying tribute to the limitless creativity of its author.
