Time is running out for people to buy posters from a collection commissioned for the Olympic and Paralympic Games.

To send a link to this page to a friend, you must be logged in.

The prints, by artists including Tracey Emin and Chris Ofili, will be available until the London 2012 online shop closes at the end of this month.

The images are currently on display at the Tate Britain, and the official posters of the Olympic and Paralympic Games will be put on display at the International Olympic Museum in Lausanne.

Seb Coe, LOCOG Chair, said: “These brilliant posters by some of the UK’s leading artists will be a fitting reminder of the high quality, skill and creativity demonstrated during the London 2012 Games.”

The posters, which cost £7, are available from www.london2012.com/shop.
