Since the first Games of the modern era in Athens in 1896, posters have played an important role in popularizing the Olympic Games. They have also served, once every four years, to identify both the host city and a particular aesthetic linked to the overall image of that year's Games. With this history in mind, COOB'92 developed a very ambitious project, involving 58 different posters grouped into four collections: the official Olympic posters, the painters' posters, the designers' posters and the photographic sports posters.

For the four official sports posters (work by Josep M. Trias, Javier Mariscal, Enric Satué and Antoni Tàpies) and the eight painters' posters ( by Eduardo Arroyo, Antoni Clave, Eduardo Chillida, Jean-Michel Folon, Josep Guinovart, Robert Llimós, Guillermo Pérez Villalta and Antonio Saura ), in addition to the normal print run there was a limited edition in silkscreen and lithograph signed by the authors, which COOB'92 used as prestigious gifts for VIPs visiting Barcelona.
