The foundation established by Robert Indiana to preserve his legacy is selling the artist’s longtime home on the Maine island of Vinalhaven, despite instructions in his will that the property be transformed into an art space open to the public.
The Star of Hope Foundation, as the foundation is called, listed this week Indiana’s former home, a rambling 19th-century Odd Fellows lodge known as the Star of Hope, for $1.4 million, according to the New York Times. A second building Indiana owned, a few doors away, is being offered for $210,000.
