Dear Friends of Origin,

The Olympic buzz is finally upon us and the good news is that if you're worried about missing the action, you can tear yourself away for the TV screen and nourish yourself at Origin this month with regularly coverage of the games being broadcast on the big screen. But there's more than just sport this month as we have an impressive poster exhibit by Italian artist Razzia. Hope to you see you soon.

We simply couldn't ignore the biggest event to ever hit China and will be bringing you the best highlighted events on our big screen. Our screenings will take place on the first floor while the 2 nd floor is still available for a quiet meal and soaking in the usual tranquil ambiance.

Touted as one of the world's only modern day poster "artists", Razzia works are classic and iconic. In an age of computer renderings and high powered graphics software, Razzia still conceives his posters from an original painting. He has been covering 25 years of advertisements for the words biggest brands and worldwide events… Check out a selection of his famous works from August 15 – September 15.
