Art competitions at the 1932 Summer Olympics


Art competitions were held as part of the 1932 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, United States. Medals were awarded in five categories, for works inspired by sport-related themes.
Art competitions were part of the Olympic program from 1912 to 1948, but were discontinued due to concerns about amateurism and professionalism. Since 1952, a non-competitive art and cultural festival has been associated with each Games.
