The life of Robert Indiana

Born in New Castle, he studied art at several institutions in the United States, notably Chicago. He then moved to Edinburgh and London, and traveled in Latin America and the rest of Europe.

As early as 1961, he was exhibited alongside Pop Art artists in the Studio of Dance exhibition, then in the New Realists exhibition, and organized his first solo show the following year. He followed in the footsteps of other Pop Art artists, systematically exhibiting his work with theirs all over the world - like Robert Rauchenberg. He uses neon lighting, silkscreen, sculpture and, to a lesser extent, painting. He is best known for his "Love" motifs, which he applied to canvases, silkscreens and aluminum sculptures featuring the inclined O. The iconography became a veritable reference point for his work. The iconography became a veritable Pop Art reference.

At the end of his career, he settled in Vinalhaven, an American island, where he refused all commissions and produced exclusively primitive sculptures inspired by tree trunks.

He died on his island at the age of 90.
