Olympiads by Raymond Depardon

Dispatched to Tokyo in 1964 to cover the summer Olympic Games, Raymond Depardon discovered a passion for images of sport and went on to cover five Olympiads, up until the Moscow Games in 1980. These powerful images, like the raised fists of Afro-American athletes in Mexico in 1968, form part of a hitherto unseen scenography comprised of over 130 photographs in black and white. Until February 17th. Musée National du Sport, stade Allianz Riviera, boulevard des Jardiniers, Nice (04 89 22 44 00).
