Robert Indiana was born in 1928 in Indiana and studied art in several schools and colleges between 1945-1954, including the Chicago Art Institute and Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. He settled in New York in the 1950s where he began making sculptures and paintings inspired by signs, machines, and commercial designs. In the 1960s he developed his signature style using vivid colors, letters, words, and numbers. He became known for sculptures and prints featuring the word "LOVE". Indiana considered himself a "painter of signs" and his works used symbolic shapes and colors to comment on personal and cultural history in an accessible yet thought-provoking way.

“Train of Thought” by Leo Bridle
Simple Outline
“A Journey for Love”
I. Leo Bridle and Ben Thomas were the film makers.
a. I believe they are in their late 20s and early 30s, and they graduated from the Arts Institute at Bournemouth.
b. From the United Kingdom.
II. The basic structure of the artwork is Film.
a. Material used was digital compositing software and all the animations were done by hand and not the compositing software.
b. The subject of the seemed to be the young artist and he seemed to have been in search of someone. Everything seemed to be between and a gray/sepia scale with a design using cut outs and wooden toys.
III. I think this whole film was based on love.
a. My 1st idea is that he is trying to find the woman he loved. He may have seen her before at the station and drawn her out of memory and may have come back to find her there. When he didn’t, he hopped on the train in search for her only to come up empty. I believe he used his drawing pad as some sort of map as to where she may have been. When he doesn’t find her, he returns to the station once again and this time, he finds her. He then realizes that she may be an artist as well and may have gone through the same processes to find each other.
b. My 2nd idea is that he may have drawn her as well as the other drawings in his book subconsciously and realized this was a woman he had to meet. He then returns to the train station, which is the setting of his drawing. When she doesn’t come, he hops on the train and then goes in search for the woman that he loves. When he doesn’t find her he returns back to the station and that is where he finally sees her. They go towards each other and hold hands, seeming like they both went through the same measures to find each other.
I think the way the film makers used photography and film made this a very interesting form of media. Everything looked cartooned and real at the same time. The train station and the train themselves looked like they were made out of wooden toys and the people all looked like cut outs that were animated to look like they were moving, inside of their cut out frames. This was a well done film and they filmmakers did a wonderful job. I must say it sure caught my attention.

"A Maiden in Born"
My color is milky white and thus a maiden is born... I was created by the great sculptural artist Ernst Wenck in 1901. He created my soft white body by using his strong meticulous hands. He is indeed an artist. I was created in a time when conservatism was not very popular. Because of my intricate detail and the delicate image I carry I became a model for porcelain miniatures.
If you study my structure you see the qualities that may have lead to my continued popularity. I lean forward and you see the muscle tone of my leg by the light tha ...

Representational
" generally means a painting that looks like, or mimics, something we see in the world, without deliberate distortion (Compare Rembrandt and Picasso paintings to others. Consider degrees of representation).
_ "
Abstract
"
art
combines representation with alterations that are
independent
from visual references to the world. The artist uses the visual language of shape, form, color and line to accomplish both the illusion of representation and alterations to create different effects. (Example: Pacific Northwest spirit animal).
-- "
Non-objective
"
art:
essentially, the artwork may evoke, or suggest some aspects of the seen world, but mainly, it is not intended to depict persons, places or things as they appear in the world. (Examples: Kandinsky,

thGAP - BAbyss in Moderno!! Transgenic Human Germline Alternatives ProjectMarc Dusseiller Dusjagr
thGAP - Transgenic Human Germline Alternatives Project, presents an evening of input lectures, discussions and a performative workshop on artistic interventions for future scenarios of human genetic and inheritable modifications.
To begin our lecturers, Marc Dusseiller aka "dusjagr" and Rodrigo Martin Iglesias, will give an overview of their transdisciplinary practices, including the history of hackteria, a global network for sharing knowledge to involve artists in hands-on and Do-It-With-Others (DIWO) working with the lifesciences, and reflections on future scenarios from the 8-bit computer games of the 80ies to current real-world endeavous of genetically modifiying the human species.
We will then follow up with discussions and hands-on experiments on working with embryos, ovums, gametes, genetic materials from code to slime, in a creative and playful workshop setup, where all paticipant can collaborate on artistic interventions into the germline of a post-human future.

Robert indiana sculpture handout
1. Sculpture Handout:
Robert Indiana
Born in 1928 at New Castle, Indiana, as Robert Clark. Between 1945 and 1948 he studied at art schools
in Indianapolis and Utica, and from 1949 to 1953 at the Chicago Art Institute School and the Skowhgan
School of Painting and Sculpture, Maine. In 1953 and 1954 he studied at the Edinburgh College of Art
and London University, after which he settled in New York. He took up contact with the painters Kelly,
Smith and Youngerman. His early works were inspired by traffic signs, automatic amusement machines,
commercial stencils and old trade names. In the early sixties he did sculpture assemblages and
developed his style of vivid color surfaces, involving letters, words and numbers. In 1966 he had
exhibitions in Düsseldorf, Eindhoven (Van Abbemuseum), Krefeld (Museum Haus Lange) and Stuttgart
(Württembergische Kunstverein). He was represented at the Documenta "4" Exhibition, Kassel, in 1968.
He became known for silkscreen prints, posters and sculptures which took the word LOVE as their
theme. The brash directness of these works stemmed from their symmetrical arrangements of color and
form.
Robert Indiana is, by his own admission, a painter of signs. His signs are more intrinsically signals than
signs. Donald Goodall writes that "in the end Indiana's signals, all matter-of-fact and plainspoken at first,
become elusive and suggestive of personal and public history... We look again, hard. And think about
what the shapes have said." Indiana's "words... circles, squares and rectangles, and colors which begin in
the sign-painter's kit" assume "unexpected brilliance or sensitivity, as these are put in their new
universe." They possess "the authority of the irreducible. The most familiar images change character as
we inspect this symbiosis of reality and remembered experiences, of the prosaic and speculative."
Goodall suggests that Indiana's forms seem autobiographical, recalling "visual experiences as a child
which are alive in his mind," experiences that the artist "equates with that optimistic illusion of hopeful
generations, the American Dream." Nevertheless, the painting's "symbolic implication is not available to
fast-transit comprehension. The sign says what it is. Well and good. But the inner-content of Indiana's
signals, carefully planned and executed with artisan's skills, is sibylline." (The location of this quote is no
longer online so the original source is unknown. Current online sources are quoted from this page on
IAD.)
