Born in New Castle, Indiana. An American artist associated with the Pop Art movement. He returned to America in 1954 and settled in New York City. There he began making art with his distinctive "hard edge" style. Indiana's work often consists of bold, simple, iconic images, especially numbers and short words like EAT , HUG , and, his best known example, LOVE . In 1962, Eleanor Ward's Stable Gallery hosted Robert Indiana's first New York solo exhibition. He has since enjoyed solo exhibitions at over 30 museums and galleries worldwide. A retrospective of his work was exhibited in 1999 at the Portland Museum of Art in Maine, covering 40 years of his work, from 1958 to 1998. In 2013, the Whitney Museum of American Art mounted a retrospective of his work entitled "Robert Indiana: Beyond LOVE."
