The present work is a limited edition artist authorized, museum stamped and copyrighted replica of the Indianapolis Museum of Art's giant outdoor Cor-ten steel LOVE, by legendary artist Robert Indiana, translated into red brushed aluminum. The Red is one of the most desirable, as the monumental work in the Indianapolis' permanent collection is also Red, so this is the most faithful replica! These works were produced and sold in extremely limited quantities by the Indianapolis Museum of Art back in 2011 to raise funds for the museum and sold out almost immediately. The Museum then lost its copyright license and has never been allowed to make other editions. Thus these are one of a kind pieces of Pop Art history. Stamped and incised with the museum and artist copyright information, this authorized replica is now a highly desirable collectors' items. (NOT to be confused with the many unauthorized, unstamped replicas that alight across the Internet!) A miniature version of the red sculpture that sits on the grounds of the Indianapolis Museum of Art, Indiana, this brushed aluminum replica commemorates the artist most iconic design. Co-published by Morgan Art Foundation and Artist Rights Society, New York for the Indianapolis Museum of Art. NOTE: Only the AUTHORIZED replicas have the museum stamp. Beware of the many out there that don't. You're buying, and paying for, the one that was sold by the Indianapolis Museum of Art in collaboration with the Morgan Art Foundation. Done in an unnumbered limited edition; exact number unknown.
More about Robert Indiana:
Robert Indiana (born Robert Clark; September 13, 1928 – May 19, 2018) was an American artist associated with the pop art movement.
His iconic image LOVE was first created in 1964 in the form of a card which he sent to several friends and acquaintances in the art world. In 1965, Robert Indiana was invited to propose an artwork to be featured on the Museum of Modern Art's annual Christmas card. Indiana submitted several 12” square oil on canvas variations based on his LOVE image. The museum selected the most intense color combination in red, blue, and green. It became one of the most popular cards the museum has ever offered. Indiana continued to develop his LOVE series, and in 1966, worked with Marian Goodman of Multiples, Inc. to make his first LOVE sculpture in aluminum. In 1970, Indiana completed his first monumental LOVE sculpture in Cor-Ten steel which is in the collection of the Indianapolis Museum of Art.
In addition to being a painter and sculptor, Indiana made posters and prints and also designed stage sets and costumes for the Virgil Thompson and Gertrude Stein opera The Mother of Us All. Indiana's artwork has been featured in numerous exhibitions around the world and is included in the permanent collections of many major museums including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; Tate Modern, London; and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.

Robert Indiana
Robert Indiana's work evolved into hard-edged graphic images of words, logos and typographic forms, earning him a reputation as one of the country's leading contemporary artists.
Indiana is known for using public signs and symbols with altered lettering to make stark and challenging visual statements. In his prints, paintings and constructions, he gave new meaning to basic words like Eat, Die and Love. Using them in bold block letters in vivid colors, he enticed his viewers to look at the commonplace from a new perspective. One indication of his success was the appearance of his immensely popular multi-colored Love on a United States postage stamp in 1973.
