Painting produced for the 1984 LA Summer Games. This is one of the un-signed lithographic posters, published in 1982 to celebrate the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. The Olympic Committee commissioned 15 nationally known artists, to create unique designs to promote the event. The complete list of artists is Sam Francis, David Hockney, Richard Diebenkorn, Carlos Almaraz, Robert Rauschenberg, Jennifer Bartlett, Jonathon Borofsky, Roy Lichtenstein, April Gornik, Raymond Saunders, Martin Puryear, John Baldessari, Lynda Benglis, Billy Al Bengston and Garry Winogrand. This was Hockney's contribution to the portfolio. In 2017, the Olympic Museum in Lausanne Switzerland featured all 15 lithographs from this portfolio: "The 1980s were marked by non-conformism, eccentricity, audacity and joie de vivre," say the exhibition organizers, "All these elements are clearly expressed in the stylistic vocabulary chosen by the organizers of the 1984 Games in Los Angeles, with its fun approach and acid colors.
