Robert Indiana (born Robert Clark on 13 September 1928, died on 19 May 2018) was a US artist and a central figure in the Pop Art movement. He drew inspiration from advertising signs and claimed: “In America, there are more signs than trees. There are more characters than leaves. I consider myself a painter of the American landscape.” In his paintings, sculptures, carpets and prints, he imitates and arranges the words and numbers of a variety of signs, including the Phillips 66 gas station logo and the “Yield” traffic sign. He is best known for his 1964 painting “Love”, first produced for a Christmas card for the Museum of Modern Art in New York. He created a block of the word “Love”, with the “L” and the “O” on top of the ”V” and the “E”, effectively adding his own character into the mix. His “Love” painting was reproduced on a postage stamp in 1973; his “Love” sculptures are installed in public spaces worldwide. Indiana moved to New York City in 1954 and joined the Pop Art movement. In doing so, he used a distinctive visual language that drew on approaches from commercial art and existentialism and gradually turned to what Indiana calls “sculptural poems.” He had solo exhibitions in more than 40 museums and galleries worldwide. His work is in the permanent collections of numerous museums, including: the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York; the Stedelijk Museum, Schiedam, the Netherlands; the Carnegie Institute, the Detroit Institute of Art, the Baltimore Museum of Art, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Hirshhorn Museum in Washington, DC, the Institute of Contemporary Art, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and the Los Angeles County Museum, California, among many others.
