In this week's episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, host Adam Green speaks with Emeline Salama-Caro, director of the Robert Indiana Legacy Initiative. Founded in 2022 by her family following the artist’s passing, the Initiative is dedicated to expanding awareness of Robert Indiana’s work beyond his iconic LOVE sculpture. Emeline discusses the unique structure of the Initiative, how it differs from a traditional artist estate, and the motivations behind its creation. She also reflects on the legal complexities surrounding Indiana’s final years, the challenges of stewarding an artist’s legacy posthumously, and how the Initiative is reintroducing his broader practice to today’s collectors and institutions. The episode also highlights Indiana’s current exhibition in New York at Pace Gallery (who represents worldwide the Robert Indiana Legacy Initiative).
