2024 Olympic Sport Icons. The emblem is inspired by the art deco artistic movement and is a representation of marianne, the national personification of france, with a flame formed in negative space by her hair. On wednesday, february 8, the organizers of paris 2024 presented the pictographs for each discipline at the games, describing the icons as 'coats of arms'.
The organisers say that the objective for paris 2024 was to ‘elevate’ the 64 olympic and paralympic icons from mere visual aids to striking coats of arms serving as rallying cries for sports fans. In 2019, the logo and visual identity for paris 2024 was launched.
