LeRoy Neiman’s notes on art encompasses the artist’s comments on art generally as well as his personal process, career and critical reception, style, and artistic reference. Although this collection provides insights into Neiman’s perception of art’s role in life and work, its extent is not final.

[2. STOCK EXCHANGES / CASINOS - GAMBLING / A. STOCK EXCHANGES / 85% of people who play the market lose. Swings in the market, floor specialist, marketmaker, going sideways, going nowhere. Idioms: "my your market be volatile" / "may your market swing" / "Good winds, up sticks". / The scene is boring because the people are boring to look at. Women on the floor dress conservatively as against the jewelry, bare shoulders, cleavage in casino. Croups add color with their suspicious expressions and swift hand moves.] <-- CASINO ON EXCHANGE FLOOR [the same goings on as in the casino. Lots of yelling and reaction like it is full of crap tables. It is a casino really. / Stock Exchanges: / New York Stock Exchange - Wall Street / American Stock Exch. / Chicago Board of Trade / Bourse de Paris / Stock Exchange London / Sao Paulo Stock Exch. / Chicago Mercantile. / B. CASINOS - GAMBLING / Las Vegas / Atlantic City / London / Deauville / Monte Carlo / Svete Stephan Yugo / Vienna / Baden Baden / Knokke le Zoute / Kinshasa / Martinique / Reno / The best throw of the dice is to throw them away. / Brings family closer together: as the father keeps losing, they move from the suburban home to the city. First they live in a duplex, then in an apartment, subsequently in 2 rooms - finally they are really close together in one single room.] /
[3. GASTRONOMY 3A. EATING ENTERTAINMENT / The postures, passions, appetites of the prime time group - pleasure bent, indulging in relaxation at leisure. Hedonistic ritual significance. / Diner rounding off a succulent, well-ordered meal, washed down with a well-publicized label - decanted. Tightening up his stylish cravat, loosening his belt - a fop and a boudoir hero. / Appetite arousing luxury of the table. Pleasure of the table. Gulp and gorge set. / 3B. FOOD, ETC. / Cigars: Freud - T.S. Eliot - Dempsey - J.F.K. - Clinton. / Hero is only a sandwich. / The green fruit / The fruit glorious in season / And the colorful dead-ripe fruit in the market stands. / Cabbage is called "a head of cabbage" because of its approximation to the human head. / Wild Turkey Whiskey: the wild turkey is the most elusive bird in North America, very swift of foot and wing. Full strut - blue head - puffs up at mating time. / The Anatomy of the Edible: / Certain select parts of the animal have the distinction of being intended to be eaten at high table on [...] china set on fine linen after being carefully prepared into tasty gastronomic portions for the most discerning appetites. The less parts of the carcass are destined to be ground up and stuffed into sausage casing to be devoured in less distinguished environs by less demanding gourmands. / Turtle Soup: / Calipash = the part of the turtle next to the upper shield - a greenish gelatinous substance - considered a delicacy. / Calipee = the part of the turtle next to the lower shield - a yellowish delicacy.] /
[3C. WINE / Champagne stirer called "moser", originally made of silver. / When wine makes get older (into their 70's) they strive to make a wine that they could not live to drink and enjoy. At its best, the wine will be fulfilling its potential 30 years or more later. They will make "le vin pour le vin", for its own sake (_____ "l'art pour l'art"). / A wine is to be drunk in solitary splendor - that is, kneeling with head bare. (An Italian painter? painted on his knees).] Fra Angelico? [/ Drink wine of the region you are in (Corsica, Montreal, Seattle, Bordeaux...) and bottled the year of your birth. / 3D. BARS, HOTELS, & RESTAURANTS / From Offenbach's Tales of Hoffman: NICKLAUSSE (Hoffman's friend). Prologue. From taproom of Martin Luther's tavern, wine cellar in Nuremberg - to the Grand Canal in Venice (act II) - and then to Munich (act III). Epilogue: taproom of Luther's tavern again. / Restaurants: the 21, Elaine's, Tavern on the Green, Cafes des Artistes, Russian Tea Room, P.J.'s, Le Relais, Le Cirque. In Carlsbad, California: Neiman's Restaurant. Harry's, N.Y. - Venice. / The Beverly Hills Hotel and Bungalows, Beverly Hills, CA: the hotel room art consisted of Matisse, Van Gogh and Bonnard reproductions. / Painting "Le Gourmet" - Picasso blue period 1901] N.Y. DANIELS - BOULAY - HARRY CIPRIANI /
[4. CITIES / 4A. PARIS / The city of Paris was originally called Lutece (born 307). / The slant roofed book-stalls along the quays of the Seine are a dinner for worms. Book worms. Mansard roof. / Three stooges: - "What were you boys doing in Paris?" / - "Looking for parasites". / 4B. NEW YORK / New York is symbolically the the city of walls. / Real Estate Calif. NEIMAN HOUSE. / In New York, shoe shine sign: "No Waiting" / 4C. NEW ORLEANS / In New Orleans, she shine sign: "You Scuff - I'll Buff" / 5. MUSEUMS / The Triumph of Petrarch (?) - Kusthistorisches Museum, Vienna. / Triumph of Time and Fame - Metropolitan Museum, New York. / 5B. RESTORATION / Quote by William Suhr, restorer of art at the Frick Museum: "What to look for in a painting restorer? Manual skill. Of course, training as a painter, color sense, good eye empathy. But more than that, his or her ethical qualifications - humility, respect for the work of art, love of art - and a sense of responsibility.] /
[6. TRANSPORTATION / 6A. ROLLS ROYCE / Proud that his machine and his upholstery has served and survived the hard wear and tear of numerous rock and roll groups in the sixties and seventies. Lordly, arrogant and tailored, he glides his silent wheels over the Grande Corniche, Rodeo Drive, Fifth Avenue, Avenue Foch, la Rue de Faubourg Saint-Honore, Curzon Street, the Via Veneto.] WORTH AVE [He patiently waits outside "21", Maxim's, the Excelsior, the Savoy, Stock Exchanges, race track clubhouses, Broadway theaters, casino and late hour cabarets. The Rolls and her driver each has its own distinct personality. / I once saw autograph freaks at the Cannes Film Festival as the limos were queued up bumper to bumper in front of the Carlton Hotel besieging a Rolls chauffeur for autographs after the star had run for cover. / In front of Ernie's in San Francisco the marveling doorman gravely advised our driver: "It's a chilly and damp night, your Rolls is so fine, you'd better take her in out of the weather before she catches a cold." / In London, in answer to a question posed to our chauffeur, he said: "What is the best car I have driven in my 45 years chauffeuring? It's the Rolls going away of course, but I have to say the one I drive from work every day to me 'ome where I watch telly every night, that's the one I enjoy the most". / Then there is today's new breed of chauffeur. I have never owned and only driven a Rolls Royce once, on convoy to the Royal Ascot race meeting but have been a guest passenger many times in many places. My favorite memory is on an occasion I was riding a hired limo in New York along with a celebrated film starlet. Our driver in mid-town sizing up my companion accurately turned to her as we waited for a light by a phone booth on 66th Street and Park Avenue, curbed the vehicle and asked: "Ma'am would you kindly allow me to hop out for a moment - I'd like to phone my agent about an audition."] I DROVE JACK GERBER ROLLS TO ASCOT.
