The Olympic Suite is made up of 50 lithographs and serigraphs chosen to represent various contemporary artistic trends. It was published to commemorate the first centenary of modern Olympism. Carmelo Arden Quin, an outstanding painter and sculptor, was the founder, together with the Argentinean-Hungarian artist Gyula Kosice, of "Arte Madí". He met Joaquín Torres García in 1935, who steered him towards abstraction and geometrisation. The geometric treatment of forms, together with collage and decoupage, the construction of mobiles and dynamic sculptures are some of the systems and techniques employed by the artist. On this occasion he recovers the Olympic emblem of the five rings, which he frames with a synthetic geometric construction with some notes of pure colour.
