For patrons of the Indiana Museum of Art, a new exhibition about acclaimed artist Robert Indiana can be enjoyed by becoming like the artist himself. Fans of Robert Indianas famous autoportraits can now create their own using colors, words and numbers of their choosing. The app, a partnership between Brickyard Marketing and the Indianapolis Museum of Art, hopes to give the public an insight into how such an acclaimed artist puts so much of himself into his work.

We wanted to show how autobiographical his work is the numbers, the words, the colors, the shapes, they all have meaning, says Silvia Filippini Fantoni, director of interpretation, media and evaluation at the Indianapolis Museum of Art. We want people to learn by doing. They can use the app to express their own symbolism and, by doing it themselves, gain better understanding of the artists creative process.

For Brickyard Marketing, being able to work with such an acclaimed artist with a rich Indiana heritage was important to Brickyards CEO, Chris Yano, who is an Indiana native himself. We want to be a part of Indiana history and give back to the state of Indiana with an app that people everywhere can enjoy, says Chris Yano. With the Robert Indiana Autoportraits app, even people who unfortunately cant make it to Indiana for the exhibit can still be a part of the experience.

The app can be found by visiting http://www.imamuseum.org/autoportrait. The Essential Robert Indiana exhibit is on view through May 4, 2014 at the Indianapolis Museum of Art located at 4000 Michigan Road. The IMA is open Tuesday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Thursday, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.; and Sunday, noon to 5 p.m.
