Hello, I was talking to a friend and he said someone told him that Robert Indiana's Love hmmm… how can I put it. That it somehow used Indiana landmarks. The only one he could remember was that the O was the race track. I have looked all over for something on this. Does anyone have any idea? |

I'm not aware of that. He made a series of similar designs with words and this is the one that took off in the "swinging sixties". |

If that's ART, then I'm a Hottentot. |

You have to understand, modern art is a concept. George C. Scott explained it best in ‘The Flim-Flam Man' when queried as to the authenticity of certain products he purveyed, "I don't sell a product, I sell an idea!". I believe he was referring to bits of glass being presented as diamonds or some such like. Modern art is similar. |

Yeah, except that with glass and diamonds, if they are done right, only experts can tell the difference. With modern art and real art everyone but the experts can tell the difference. |

"With modern art and real art everyone but the experts can tell the difference." Beret's pulled over their eyes, and one or two glasses of chardonnaise too many! |
