Roland-Garros 2010 magnet by Nalini MALANI

The 2010 official Roland-Garros poster, created by Indian artist Nalini Malani, draws inspiration from the butterfly effect theory, which suggests that a simple flap of wings can have unsuspected repercussions on the other side of the world. Through her brushwork, the artist spreads a universal message, both serious and light, faithful to her feminist commitments and artistic universe. The poster pays tribute to Indian player Sania Mirza, a symbol of emancipation in the face of adversity, and reflects the brevity of the tournament through the symbolism of the ephemeral, with fifteen days of intense competition. The butterfly motifs and aerial composition embody both the fragility and the power of sport and art. This work, at once poetic and committed, stands out as a landmark creation in the Roland-Garros poster collection.
