OL-Revyen 1991 Lillehammer

This bold original poster promotes the revue Petter Rø’s uten filter, performed at Lillehammer Kino in the early 1990s, as part of the cultural build-up to the 1994 Winter Olympics.

The title is a pointed and satirical reference to Petter Rønningen, who served as Olympic director and played a central role in the Lillehammer Olympic Organizing Committee (LOOC). The phrase “uten filter” (“without filter”) signals a revue that offers sharp, direct commentary—likely targeting the organization, leadership, and wider societal aspects surrounding the Olympic preparations.

This tone is reinforced by the striking graphic design: a stylized figure in vivid orange and pink dominates the composition, set against a deep purple background. The figure’s exaggerated form, combined with symbolic elements such as a smoking object and briefcase, suggests critique of authority, power structures, and public figures. The jagged, abstract shapes add energy and a sense of irreverence.

Logos and references to OL-revyen ’91 and sponsors such as Sparebanken NOR further anchor the poster within the Olympic-era cultural context in Lillehammer.

Condition: Very good condition with strong colors and clean overall presentation.

A vivid and historically interesting piece of Norwegian graphic design, combining satire, theatre, and Olympic history—appealing to collectors of cultural ephemera and late 20th-century posters.
