Between July 26 and August 11, the international competition will change its face in Paris. The French flag and the Invalides cross are missing from the Games poster.

Internet users denounce an “invisibility” of French identity. The Paris 2024 Organizing Committee clarified that this absence of a cross is a simple “artist bias” The work, created by designer Ugo Gattoni, is full of details. “It is an extremely symbolic poster, which tells many things about the Paris 2024 project, starting with Bélem,” explained the artist.
