Greetings Art Educators,

A while back, someone was asking about where to purchase the Robert
Indiana HOPE design.

I still have not been able to find posters that can be purchased, but
the T-Shirts are available on the Barack Obama web site.
You can purchase the red/white/blue design on a gray or white T-Shirt.

The Obama Store also has HOPE bumper stickers (no larger posters are shown)

Robert Indiana designed a HOPE sculpture (like the LOVE sculpture) for
the Democratic Convention.
Here is some pretty good images of it:

Here is Indiana with the HOPE graphic design.

Here is a story about the artists who actually made the sculpture:
