1930 World Cup is a visual art portrait of the inaugural World Cup tournament held in Montevideo, Uruguay. The artwork uses layers of drawings, images, diagrams, tables and text, to tell the story of this unique first iteration of what was to become one of the largest global sporting events. It captures the essence of the tournament, its structure, results and statistics, common playing style etc., and pays tribute to the host nation, city, and venue, legendary players (Stabile, Andrade, Nasazzi, Ballestero), a referee (Langenus), the game balls (T-Model, Tiento), and to the many unusual circumstances surrounding the first World Cup.
