On August 8, 2008, the United Nations Postal Administration (UNPA) issued a set of six commemorative stamps on the theme “Sport for Peace.” The stamp issue coincided with the Olympic Expo Beijing 2008 which was being held in Beijing, China from August 8 to August 18 in conjunction with the Games of the XXIX Olympics.
A unique printing process has been used for this stamp issue, which is a first ever for any postal administration. The total sheet area for the stamps is gold-foiled. Then a white offset coating is applied to the four-colour areas and then a four-colour process is printed over the white areas.
UNPA had commissioned the world-renowned South American artist Romero Britto to create six pieces of original artwork to design the stamps.
A modern day pop culture phenomenon, Romero Britto, has created contemporary masterpieces with his vibrant colors, bold patterns and a continuous message of hope.

By Aaron Young and Joel Taffet (Author)
“The distinctive neo-Pop style of Romero Britto has made a significant impact on the world of art. With clean, bold, and colorful imagery, this young artist subtly delivers strong, poignant messages in a refreshing and upbeat manner. His masterful use of form and color resonate with activism, allowing him to address a variety of social and political issues without any of the harsh preaching found in much of contemporary art. Britto’s work embodies the expressionist color patterns of the Fauves, the multi-dimensional facets of Cubism, and the reference to mass culture in Pop Art. This is the first book on Britto and it includes 90 large color reproductions of his paintings and graphics, as well as a profile of his life and career.” The Brazilian artist is also known for his sculptures and his ‘neo-pop’ wall decorations. Foreword by Nan Miller and Aaron Young. Photographs of paintings by Ira Victor and Michael Hager, other photographs by Andrew Melick. Includes listings of exhibitions.
