The Essential Robert Indiana
Author: Martin F. Krause
Publisher: Prestel Pub
ISBN: 9783791352589
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
"Decoding Robert Indiana's work for a new generation, this revelatory book explores previously unknown autobiographical elements in the work of the Pop artist and printmaker. Famously proclaiming himself to be "an American painter of signs," Robert Indiana has created an enormous body of work, much of it boldly colored abstractions. In this incisive new examination of the artist, based on ongoing conversations with Indiana, art historian Martin Krause sifts through autobiographical clues within the artist's work and finds a wealth of affecting and affectionate references to Indiana's childhood, literary heroes, and the cultural icons of his generation. In addition, a penetrating essay by Pop art scholar John Wilmerding deconstructs Indiana's use of geometric shapes, making unexpected connections that enhance Krause's thesis. Accompanied by reproductions of more than 50 prints from the period 1960-2010--and focusing specifically on series such as Decade: Autoportraits, Vinalhaven Suite, and The Hartley Elegies as well as the "Love" and "Hope" images and studies of Marilyn Monroe, Picasso, and the Brooklyn Bridge--Krause's decryption of Indiana's visual language provides telling insight into the work of this quintessentially American artist"--

Love and the American Dream
Author: Robert Indiana
Publisher: University of Washington Press
ISBN:
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
Robert Indiana's works all speak to the vital forces that have shaped American culture in the last half of the 20th century. The American Dream is the cornerstone of Indiana's mature work. It was the theme of his first major painting, sold to the Museum of Modern Art in 1961, as well as an ongoing series. Indiana also created one of the most widely recognized works of art in the world, Love. Much of Indiana's important contribution to American art has been overshadowed by the proliferation, pirating, and mass production of works bearing the image of Love. Daniel E. O'Leary discusses the artist's development through an examniation of his journal/sketchbooks from 1958-1963; Susan Elizabeth Ryan investigates Indiana's painting Love, its origins and impact on the artist's career; and Aprile Gallant contributes an essay on Indiana's preoccupation with the idea of the American Dream.
