Robert Indiana (b. 1928)

“…His art is Pop in that it is the deeply ingrained idea of American making and fabrication…and the bringing together of high and low. Yet what’s so distinctive about his work is that it’s deeply historical, going back almost to a kind of Puritan tradition, while at the same time, it’s ultimately international” (B. Haskell, et al., Robert Indiana: Beyond Love, exh. cat. The Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, 2013, p. 195).
