1st prize PCU | DRAWING CONTEST 2018 “Union” Francisca Ojeda Liceo experimental artístico Chile Digital drawing, 30×40 No matter the differences, sport itself unites athletes. It is a lifestyle, guide, and allows the enrichment of the person. Maintain the union taking into account the valuable sports ethics. Honorable commendation 2nd prize PCU | DRAWING CONTEST 2018 of the PCU Games Participants and University of Rome Tor Vergata “Jump into the unknown” Maria Makacheva The St. Mary's Shelter, Moscow Russia Gouache on paper, 30×40 . Diving is a spectacular and beautiful sport that strengthens your spirit, health and discipline. Inspired by exceptional technique of Cubism, I decided to make a geometric shapes painting. Water, as a powerful and unmanageable element, is depicted by geometric shapes in dark colors. The prevailing dark tones symbolize an unknown future.And suddenly a breakthrough! Bright colors break through into the unknown, like the rays of the sun and hope. Just like in sports, proving that the impossible is possible. That is what I wanted to depict in my painting.
3rd prize PCU | DRAWING CONTEST 2018 “Sporting Compassion” Liyana Gasnafar Ashoka University India Oil on Chart paper, 50×70 "Sporting Compassion" is an amalgamation of ideas that people might often perceive as contradictory. It shows that we can be both competitive and compassionate in sports, that we can be inclusive even though we might not wear the same colored jersey as our opponent, and that fair play requires us to treat others with respect, no matter what color one's skin is, nor what gender one is, nor what country one belongs to, no matter what the odds are. Playing fair does not mean that we downplay ourselves, but that we give others an equal opportunity to be a part of the game. I believe this is what Olympism stands for, and, every now and then, we see how people break man-made boundaries by forwarding their hand in help. As a character in a book, I once read, said: "If you have a choice between being right and being kind, choose to be kind."
Honorable commendation of the Contest Selection Commission “Let's Play Basketball” Michael Wu University of California, Irvine USA Digital vector illustration, 30×40 The theme centers around 'fair play' so I put together this diverse group of ballers (Isaiah Thomas, Dirk Nowitzki, Michael Jordan, Shaquille O'Neal, Lisa Leslie) to sit side- by-side on this giant basketball rim. Despite their differences and competitive nature, they are tied together by one simple game: Basketball “The impossible is possible” Anastasia Garkovets Kyiv State Institute of Decorative and Applied Art and Design Ukraine Acrylic on canvas, palette knife, 30×40 The Olympic Games have always been breathtaking and united nations. Fair play is stronger than any pleasure and raised from the bottom to the very top. This is something that inspires everyone, motivation that will never stop....
“The Art of Sport” Sofiya Kuzmina School of Visual Arts New York, USA Oil and acrylic on canvas, 30×40 Referencing the composition of Henri Matisse’s masterpiece “The Dance”, I draw a connection between art history and Olympic traditions that both have been shaping our society since its very beginning. Just like five Olympic Rings are linked together to create a greater whole, five young athletes are united in one fluid continuous movement, holding hands and dancing in celebration of their unity and equality. While sport and art may seem to be radically different disciplines, a closer look shows that they have a lot in common. Allowing us to escape the limitations of a spoken language, they become the most universal ways to express ourselves and connect on an emotional level. They empower us individually along with inspiring the whole communities to come together and share universal passions. “Cyclist" Anna Martynenko KNUCA; Academy of Fine Arts in Prague Czech Republic Acrylic on canvas, 45×60 By the simplicity of drawing, I wanted to show how everything fades away while people give themselves to their passion.
“Unity” Milena Radivojevic Faculty of Applied Arts, Belgrade Serbia Tempera on paper, 40×50 I am an art college student of the last year education at the Faculty Applied arts in Belgrade. I like running and riding a bicycle. This makes me feel happy and relaxed. I saw children (on videos on YouTube) with disabilities being able to perform various sports, supporting each other, thrusting themselves to do what they like. In my painting, I expressed the great feeling those children emanate. “The Heir of Podium” Chaitanya Koli Shri Guru Gobind Singhji Institute of Engineering and Technology, Nanded, Maharashtra India Acrylic on Paper, 50×70 The sparkle from the crackers marked the victory which was restricted neither to the colors to the nations nor the races. What won that day was sportsman spirit. Athlete, the one who is not within the barrier of his/her physical disabilities, is the rightful heir of the champion's podium. The shine of gold, silver and bronze was not enough to overshadow the enthusiasm and happiness for each other in their nerves. Swords of hardships, no doubt, are inescapable but then, after witnessing the shimmer of sunlight and showers of clouds the beauty of rainbow is visible. What such events conclude is that who emerges victorious are not the sportsmen, but the sport itself. Yes, in the end no one can disagree that memento embraces the glitter of sweat, blood and dust of holy arena…
“Fair Play as an Ultimate Goal” Mina Purešić University of Arts in Belgrade Serbia Pencil and gouache on paper, 30×40 This artwork is inspired by a true story from another part of the world about a high-school race run by teenage girls. One of the girls, who was approaching the finish line, collapsed at one moment. She got up several times, but every time she fell down again. According to the race regulations no one was allowed to help her. And no one did, so as not to be disqualified. No one but one fellow runner, who stopped and picked up the poor girl. This act of true fair play was completely spontaneous and unreasonable in its complete and essential humaneness. They reached the finish line together. And, of course, both of them were disqualified. Although one race was lost, a greater one was one won: as a result the regulation of automatically disqualifying runners who are helping each other was immediately changed. “Limitless” Thangmaism Bikram Singha Indian Institute of Public health, Hyderabad India Collage and mix-media, 30×40 Sports and games is devoid of race, religion and disability. We play, we fall and then we rise; we win together and that team spirit makes the bond stronger and everlasting. It's all about binding the entire nation through sports.
“The Route" Catarina Figueiredo College of Art from the University of Edinburgh UK Mixed media, 30×40 My drawing celebrates the fact that climbing is going to take part in the 2020 Olympics and that as a sport it shares the Olympics ethics, so I wanted to illustrate the spirit of Fair Play and Universal Friendship in climbing. My close relationship with this sport made me realize that climbing salutes the ascent and trial, aiming for perfection and that the support among climbers can be directly seen in the very strong cheering and respect while a climber is trying to reach for the top. Although there is usually one efficient way to reach for the top that can become universal, there can also be different ways to perform a route which usually translate into a celebration of difference and creativity that I immediately relate with Pierre de Coubertin motto “The most important thing is not to win but to take part!". “A Road To Glory” Dimas Muhammad Iqbal Putra Budiman Bandung Institute of Technology Indonesia Watercolour on Paper, 40×50 The artwork shows the runners who are just finishing the race and are helping each other. As I dwell through the idea of fair play, I stumbled upon a sight. The idea of fair play is to give all of you during the competitions. At the end of the day we are all human beings that need each other for the glory that unites us through respect and kindness.
Honorable commendation “Olympic Respect” of the PCU Bridge Trophy Participants Federico Aguiar EASD Ramón Falcón Spain Digital Art with Wacom Bamboo, 30×40 In this work I have look for the semi realism through digital painting, showing union, respect and fair play among competitors. In spite of whether you win or lose, in the end what matters are the values of each one. Sportsmanship is one of the greatest values and is what makes a real competitor great, so I wanted to reflect in this paint the importance of fair play in sports. “Passing The Torch” Chiu Yi The One Academy of Communication Design Malasia Digital painting, 30×40 The illustration shows the celebration of passing the spirit of fair play. The concept is about passing the spirit of fair play from the Olympic Games to the University Sport as the action of valuing the spirit of fair play and universal friendship shown by the professional athletes will have a positive impact on the ethics in university sports. The illustration is created by overlapping shapes to create a dynamic feel and looks more like a sports poster. The colors of the Olympic Rings are used as the colors of the confetti and the end of the flame is modified into a handshake to represent the spirit of fair play and universal friendship.
