Love, created in 1966-1999 by American artist Robert Indiana, is a polychromed aluminum sculpture in Grand Rapids that became one of the most significant works in the history of American art. Initially conceived for the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1965, it was developed by the legendary Pop artist as a bold, welcoming image that he used in sculpture at a variety of scales, many of which are prominently placed around the world. The life-affirming quality of its message and colorful image made it a universal icon.
