Chocolate Love – Robert Indiana’s artwork in chocolate

Indiana chocoSince its creation in the mid-sixties, Robert Indiana's Love artwork has appeared in many forms and inspired countless others. This could be the most popular yet – 'Chocolate Love', a recreation of the work in cocoa. 

Taking the form of the instantly recognisable stacked letters with slanting 'O', this miniature work of art measures 10cm square and is made from solid dark chocolate, covered in edible gold dust. 

At £7.50, it's probably the most affordable version of the artwork too – though is probably too tasty to be around for long.

Love sculpture by Robert Indiana

Indiana

A pop art icon as a piece of wall art, Love by Robert Indiana is now available as a sculpture.

Originally produced between 1964 and 1966 as everything from paintings and posters through to Christmas cards and rings, it was later remade as a 12ft steel sculpture, which you'll find in the Indianapolis Museum of Art. This is a replica of that sculpture.

This tabletop design, approved by the artist, is available in the red above, as well as blue, pink, green and silver, all standing around 7.6cm high and wide. You can get one for £65.
