Tokyo 2020 has revealed the 20 official posters for this year's Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Nineteen artists have created the work which will go on display at an exhibition in the Japanese capital from tomorrow.

They will also be displayed across the city with the aim of promoting both the Olympics and Paralympics.

Artists from both Japan and overseas have been involved in the project.

There are 12 posters for the Olympic Games and eight for the Paralympics, with all 20 continuing the long tradition of artwork advertising the Games.
