Few artworks are more widely recognized than Robert Indiana's iconic Pop image "Love" which was originally commissioned as a Christmas card by The Museum of Modern Art, New York, in 1965. Appealing to a wide spectrum of viewers from its inception to the present--1960s idealists to museum-bookstore shoppers-- Love has been reproduced in prints, political banners, stamps and an equally iconic sculpture. This volume is published in honor of the artist's eightieth birthday and provides an intriguing look at his canonical large-scale metal sculpture. In addition to Love , such well-known works as the Electric Eat , Art and the autobiographical Numbers series are reproduced. Robert Indiana was born Robert Clark in Indiana in 1928 and took his home state's name after moving to New York in 1954. He became known by the early 1960s for his hard-edged abstract paintings featuring text, numbers and symbols.
