Note on Art
Subject
The topic of the resource
A personal note from LeRoy Neiman on his prints, biography, and relationship with St. John's University.
Description
An account of the resource
This note from LeRoy Neiman provides a fragmented commentary from the artist on his prints (and by extension work with Knoedler Publishing in the 1970s and 1980s), biography, and relationship with St. John's University. Neiman received St. John's "University Gold” award in 1985 at commencement. That said, the note itself seems to revolve around a debacle surrounding the artist’s sale of the prints at the school. The document’s reverse outlines a rough chronology of the artist’s life and career.

[ H. INFLUENCES & IMITATIONS]
Army [When I just got out of the army in St. Paul, I did a quick oil on a cotton canvas fragment of a Tilman Riemenschneider's head of Christ from a pamphlet on his work I bought in Wurzburg in 1945 in an army occupation]
Chicago - New York [Carl Milles' Triton fountain at C.A.I and piece in stall at the Met Restaurant were touchstones to onyx Indian in St. Paul's post office] The two Minnesota pieces are no longer there
Student [As a student, because of Swedish blood, I read the writings of Swedenborg (6) and the plays of Stringburg. I also read Sartre, Paul Klee, Santayana, Freud, Kafka, the Russians, Baudelaire, Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Henri James (7), T.S. Eliot and discovered Beckett. I took Swedenborg] Books [from the library] /
[The Chicago sociologist started to make their imprint] impact [on me as well as poets Paul Carrol,] and [Raoul Denny, John Piper adn big MAN David Riesman - author of "The Lonely Crowd" (1950). I also erad Huizinga's "Homo Ludens" (1950), a study of play elements in culture, Reuel Denny, "The Astonished Muse", Jeremy Bentham, "The Pleasure Principle (Notes on Hedonism)" and Rudloph Arnheim, "Psychology and Perception" / I never really enjoyed History of Art projects but realized their value years later to this day and believe it to be the most important class along with figure drawing and painting in all art training. You must have knowledge of your predecessors and respect for them as you hope generations hence will have work for you / ---- / During the 50's and 60's, my favorite artworks were Toulouse Lautrec's lithos, Gustav Gourbet's (1819-1877) "L'Apres-Diner a Oran" (1949), Paul Cezanne's "Card Players" (1892), Daumier's "At the Cafe" Lautrec and Dufy were my favorites as well, together with Kees van Dongen, a then hard to find in Chicago, an "out of favor artist"] Will select from later [I became very attached to certain paintings in the Chester Dale collection - Henri-Marie-Rayond, Vicomte de Toulouse Lautrec Monfa, French 1892 "At the Moulin Rouge" (47 1/2 X 55 1/4), "At the Moulin de la Gallete". The SAIC owned half] /
[a dozen of paintings, a sketchbook and hundreds of prints. A Lautrec exhibitions was held in 1949. He put himself in painting. He drew great head shapes, women's hairdo, men's hat indoors, young adolescent girls. Right foreground: chlorotic, pale yellow, green color. Design. dark shape groups. / - Raoul Dufy, French 1877-1953: "Nude Reclining", an exotic painting with color combinations and violets and a mountain landscape "Saint Janet" / Also "Mindful of Hindu Girl" (1928) / - Henri Matisse, French 1869-1954: "Woman Before An Aquarium" The gaze of a woman stopping at fish. I always have felt Matisse arrived at what he wanted with having to change the things very much. His intelligence guided him,] he had the ability to [put down what he intended / - Pablo Picasso, Spanish 1881-1973: "Family of Saltimbanques" (7 X 7 1/2), "Lovers" / - John Singer Sargent, American 1856-1925: "Nude Study of an Egyptian Girl" / - Giorgio de Chirico, Italian 1888-19: "Conversation Among the Ruins" (loan) / - Francois Boucher, French: "Nude" / - Georges Rouault, French 1871-19 "Jesus Always Scourged" (1922) (Also "Christ's Head", in Paris) / - A half dozen Braques' and Innis / - The women paintings of Modigliani / - Edgar Degas, French 1834-1917 Pastels, namely "Dancers in the Wings"] /
[In the Art Institute Museum upstairs, Addison and I would visit the galleries almost everyday.] at noon time [He had his favorites - Rembrandt, Vermeer, etc. I had mine, mostly the French. Two particular paintings that made my mind wanter to the Riviera were Matisse's "Woman Standing at the Window" and Dufy's "Open Window" (Nice, 1928) Similar subjects were depicted a view out from an interior on]to [the Mediterranean. They made me want to be there. Eventually I did] / Check later [Between 1947 and 1959, when at SAIC, I became especially interested in / - John Constabile, British 1776-1837. landscape "Stoke-By-Nayland" (oil).

[(engraving), rendering from back. Great technique and anatomy (Met. Mus, Rembrandt Collection). / - Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, Italian 1696-1770: "Rinaldo and Armida in the Garden". Prominent with companion piece at top of stairs; later other prominent pieces at the Met. Soft colors, space. / The Italians - Tintoretto, Veronese and Tiepolo - hit me hard and stayed with me, although they were not strongly represented in the Chicago Art Institute collections. I looked] up further [Fragonard and Tiepolo in Ryerson Library. / There was no way of not getting knocked out when the American Expressionists came to town in the late 1940s. Pollock, DeKooning, Marco Relli, [Klein] - to sight the ones who made the most powerful impact. Then there was the great masterpieces of French tapestry which I first saw at the Art Institute Show of 1948 and which set off a lifetime of keen interest. I repeatedly visit the tapestries collection at the Met when prowling] museums.

The note is roughly divided into five sections: influential literature read, courses (in both the humanities and studio arts) taken, artworks physical seen, and anecdotes about the Chicago Art Institute. The sections have little relation outside of autobiographical chornology, and the note was most likley taken in preparation for the artist's memior, <em>All Told</em>.

["Without intent I draw from the outside world the semblance of things, but in this way, I, myself become part of the world's imaginings. Thus in everything imagination is simply that which is natural. It is natural vision, life..." / H. INFLUENCES & IMITATIONS / When I got out of the army in St. Paul, I did a quick oil on a cotton canvas fragment of a Tilman Riemenschneider's head of Christ from a pamphlet on his work I bought in Wurzburg in 1945 in army occupation. / During the 50's and 60's ] some of [my favoriet artworks were Toulouse Lautrec's lithos, Gustave Courbet's (1819-1877) "L'Apres-Diner a Oran" (1949), Paul Cezanne's "Card Players" (1892), Daumier's "At the Cafe" / Lautrec and Dufy were my favorites as well, together with Kees van Dongen, a then hard to find in Chicago, sort of "out of favor" artist. / I became very attached to certain paintings in the Chester Dale collection / - Henri-Marie-Raymond, Vicomte de Toulouse Lautrect Monfa, French 1892. "At the Moulin Rouge" (47 1/2 X 55 1/4), "At the Moulin de la Galette" the SAIC owned half a dozen of his paintings, a sketchbook and hundreds of prints. A Lautrec exhibition was held in 1949.

When he made a change he left evidence / [- Pablo Picasso, Spanish 1881-1973: "Family of Saltimbanques" (7 X 7 1/2), "Lovers" and from his "blue period", little girl etching a bowl while standing at a table (1901) / - John Singer Sargent, American 1856-1925: "Nude Study of an Egyptian Girl" / - Giorgio de Chirico, Italian 1888-19: "Conversation Among the Ruins" (loan) / - Francois Boucher, French: "Nude" / - Georges Rouault, French 1871-19 "Jesus Always Scourged" (1922) (Also "Christ's Head", in Paris) / - A half dozen Braques' and Innis / - The women paintings of Modigliani / - Edgar Degas, French 1834-1917 Pastels, namely "Dancers in the Wings" / At SAIC all students experienced, first hand, the many benefits of the Museum, of the Ryerson Library Print Collection as well as the Goodman Theater of Drama - which was associated with the school. / My art teachers at SAIC were Boris Anisfeld (painting),] Document [Briggs Dyer (drawing and painting), Alan Philbrick (pen and ink), John Rogers Cox (scratch board rendering), Ed Ruppercht (subject matter, general drawing), Paul Wieghart (painting),] 6 [Members of SAIC's staff were Carl O.

[curator of prints and drawings), Ethelred Abbot (librarian), Ryerson and Burnheim. Katherine Kuh (curator of modern painting and sculpture) became an editor and liked my work. Daniel Catton Rich (director of Art Institute from 1938 to 1958) loved Magnasco (4) Fredrick A. Sweet (curator of American paintings) when he selected a painting from two he was considering to hang in the American exhibition of the Art Institute, said after studying the two paintings "you're on the right track, but your paintings need be a bit more cursory". This was meaningful comment and I've tried, but still show more than I should. / Art school students were John Bajerus, Bob and Herb Katzman, Franz Schultz, Seymour Rosephsky, Irv Petlin, Bob Natkin (with whom I am still in contact), Nathan Goldstein,] very promising sculptor [Claus Oldenburg, Leon Golub, Estes (who started the hyperreaslist school) Jordan Krimstein, John Jurgens] had something surrealistically special [and Charles Usher] a talent who I felt needed to be watched [a black student (5), were very talented. There are no big names today because of other objectives Robert Natkin was a kid out of high school in our class that comprised 75 to 85 war veterans - even WACS Student Whitney Halstead was an assistant to Kathleen Blackshear, the History of Art instructor and lecturer I once seriously kicked him in the ass when he snippely scolded me about my paper being turned in late. / The art Institute major shows were with De Kooning and Pollock (abstract expressionism), Enamul, Baziotes, Marco Relli, Van Gogh, and a tapestry show] Kline Guston / Katherine Kuh said when sitting with a group of students "Picasso if he were born and living the U.S. would do any kind of art he pleased to experience himself. In Europe he had to be just a painter and a sculptor. /

Bread, wine, knife. / - Daumier Honore, French caricaturist. He probed human feeling and broadly transcribed contemporary life. His period treated him unkindly; he is now belauded. This perversion of a talent justly celebrated for work of another kind has found much favor / - Hendrik Gollzives, Dutch 1558-1619: "Hercules" (engraving), rendering from back. Great technique and anatomy (Met. Mus., Rembrandt Colelction) / - Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, Italian 1696-1770: "Rinaldo and Armida in the Garden".

Soft colors, space. / The Italians - Tintoretto, Veronese and Tiepolo - hit me hard and stayed with me, although they were not strongly represented in the Chicago Art Institute collections. I looked at Fragonard and Tiepolo in Ryerson Library.

[- Pierre Bonnard, French 1867-1947: "Preparation for Lunch" (gouache) Folding napkins, settling table, still life, table cloth. / - Chardin, French 1699-1779: "The White Tablecloth" . Bread, wine, knife / - Daumier Honore, French caricaturist. He probed human feelings and broadly transcribed contemporary life. His period treated him unkindly; he is now belauded. This perversion of a talent justly celebrated for work of another kind has found much favor. / - Hendrik Gollzives, Dutch 1558-1619: "Hercules" (engraving), rendering from back. Great technique and anatomy (Met. Mus., Rembrandt Collection) / - Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, Italian 1696-1770: "Rinaldo and Armida in the Garden" Prominent with companion piece at top of stairs, later other prominent pieces at the Met. Soft colors, space / / The Italians - Tintoretto, Veronese and Tiepolo - hit me hard and stayed with me, although they were not strongly represented in the Chicago Art Institute collections. It looked at the Fragonard and Tiepolo in Ryerson Library // An Aside / During this plunge into the underworld, this binge of high paying patronage, I did not neglect my own painting / But the ref of the art game benched me for being a bad boy / Contender in the art game / I was all over the art scene - teaching, illustrating, gaining patronage. But I wanted recognition in the official art world too - the world of exhibitions, juried competitions, shows in galleries and museums. The big league art world starts with the local scene and expands to bigger and bigger audiences on the international circuit. I was working my way through the field, course, track??

Description
An account of the resource
This note from LeRoy Neiman provides a list of artworks, ranging from French post-Impressionism to Italian Rococo. The majority of references stem from works seen while the artist saw in Chicago in addition total couple encountered at the Met Museum, after moving to New York in 1962. In addition to this registry, Neiman catalogues a range of professional ventures (teaching, juried competitions, and illustration) undertaken while living in Chicago. This latter section proves anecdotal in style.

LAUTREC
In 1949 Carl O. [?] wrote a (about 30 page) piece about Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec in [a] Chicago Art Institute publication of about 30 pages devoted to the Art Institute’s collection of theatric prints
Born 1864 Laurtrecs litho in 1893 in pure art Nouveau Influenced Young Picasso
[?] assistant Hugh Edwards would bring out box after box of Lautrec lithos for me to hold into white glove hands to study. His line, tonality, etc. The drawing. A half-century had passed since he passed away and me equal to update his—
I had discovered Lautrec, he knocked me for a loop. To hid in the book dept of the Golden Rule [department?] store in downtown St. Paul. Paging through the book (title) my mother at my side responded to my excitement and bout the book for me (cost.) publish in 19
(Over)
So I started taking evening (drawing) classes liked it so much I insisted on adding to my classes—the next semester.
The school concealed I was so adamant—on an on. /
It is a treasure[,] and she too paged through the book back home. I was enraptured. I sketched a lot in the army not knowing why. Anything, my buddies, officers, the gun sites. Here was Lautrec concentrating on a style of life of the sort of place I voluntarily sought out. It was like he owned it, invented it. He sure did invent the way he saw and drew it—etc.
[?] dismissed my interest[,] showing no interest in my discovery. Lautrec was not like anyone or thing I’d ever experienced.
I worked hard in class. Taking a crack at everything that presented itself. The [discipline?], the materials[,] tuned in on the instructors. Everyday was discovery day[.]
I was sampling, discarding, learning, my confidence in how my work measured up and grew, but there was something lacking. Something (else) I needed. It was to draw freely, subject of my own selection. I wanted to sketch. Investigate possibilities that would turn me loose, to discover for myself. To be like Lautrec
Then I kept leaning into the fashion illustration class door. They were drawing [?][,] reemphasizing different aspects of the figure[,] sort of like Lautrec. I was told at the office I could not register for F1 as a painting major.

A note from LeRoy Neiman on his relationship with Henri Toulouse-Lautrec.
Description
An account of the resource
This note from LeRoy Neiman is one of many touching on Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Neiman opens the writing with a remark repeated elsewhere in the collection, concerning his discovery of the artist—that is, meandering through the book department of the Golden Rule Department Store in St. Paul, with his mother; he had returned shortly from the war. But, the note should be understood as part encyclopedia, part anecdote. Neiman weaves through facts about Lautrec and associated publications alongside how the figure served as inspirational for Neiman, furthering his interests in illustration and catalyzing an his enrollment in things including but not limited to night drawing courses.

TEACHER
While teaching at the Art Institute, I was characteristic [for me] to chat with a fellow instructor from the next (adjoining) classroom. (While class was in session), I mentioned that a young (attractive) student in his class had posed in the nude for a Playboy foldout. The Playboy photographer (Alex, who had shot for contact sheets) had shown me the (Playboy selection) during the week. The coincidence amused me. Very abundant attributes, and I commented that she was a reject for Playmate of month spread (sense the high qualities of the potentials—and she meeting requirements, a very sexy young woman). Anyways, several days later, after I had taught my figure drawing morning class of when the young lady was a member
Back in my basement studio as well I was preparation for in concentration painting (when) a loud hammering (kept hammered on my studio) on my front door of my basement studio to an accompanying loud loud profane shouts.
I hurried to the entrance before I feared he may break the door down. Upon opening the door, there stood the wild-eyed young man, cursing and swearing both hands knotted into threatening fists. And she, standing there expressionless, shaking as he was but in care of concern.
Straight away he bellowed that they had (just) heard that word was circulating all around school that she […] had just posed for Playboy, tarnishing her (over) /
reputation. That she was a serious student, and offended that an instructor would go around spreading information that was damaging.
Profane threats, [?], as I made no attempt to deny on my [end] the accusations. But, [I] felt it was imperative that I settle him down, then do away with the drama. (I calmly leveled my gazed into the [?] eyes of his hot head, obviously her protective boyfriend.) How fortunate the young couple were indeed at the test. Photographs had not made a favorable impression on the photo editors at Playboy, and would not be need[ed]. Saying, had they qualified, a good million readers would see the photos and countless more [?]. The hero student backed off with the realization and humbly made their departure (embarrassingly) without as much as an apology.

An account of the resource
This note from LeRoy Neiman provides an anecdote from the artist’s teaching career. The writing concerns a student at the School of Art Institute in Chicago (SAIC) who was both artist as well as aspiring <em>Playboy</em> model. Although the note does not situation Neiman in a role of agency, the story concerns a gossip chain that evolved around the student posing for (but not receiving a spread in) the magazine.

TEACHING
In my Saturday (adult) figure drawing, a student unlike other member straddling the benches
Approaching (his) middle years, slicked back hair in a pony[tail?] with streaks of grey (at the temples and whole [?]) manicure shirt and well buffed footwear
Along about (week 3) It was drawing a coffee break in the Museum Cafeteria he (approached my table and) introduced himself and went (straight) on to explain why he was enrolled in the class. He was a night career bartender barkeep at the Edgewater Bead Hotel Bar.
(Pump Room Bar in Playboy) He went on to what brought him to my class was he just wanted to see just where I came from and more important just why and how I painted my bar pictures. He said after viewing a bar paintings of The Pump Room bar and Ricarello in exhibitions, the back bar never looked the same (to him on duty). Thereafter the lights glowing throughout the amber whiskey colors (the labels), the glitter and see through, the brilliance and sparkle of the whole rows of glasses, one glass shelf above the other. Shortly after studying the paintings (at length) he never felt the same behind the bar. He felt he was in a Neiman painting. A part of a painting /
felt like an artist. It just made him want to paint himself.
He remained in class the remainder of the term, but didn’t reregister.
I felt like I was a character in a de Maupassant short story. No finality, but an experience that never has recurred, but is a warm and inspiring memory.

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. The artist’s musings on the subject spill over to other records, such as his thoughts on childhood, travel, sports, food culture, and class politics. <br /><br />The majority of these documents were made in preparation for the artist’s memoir, <em>All Told</em>.

EDUCATION
(contour drawing)
at the close of my 3rd year, Dean Hubert Ropp, who used to pop his head in the door of classes as he bounced around the corridor, called me into his office. After giving me critique or a tip, about my excessive (use of intense) bright color together with contrasting strong value, not acceptable. No comment or interest from me. Then, he surprised me, offering me a change to teach drawing in the summer session. I taught for the following 10 years as well as teaching painting 3 years in the [Saugatuck?] Summer School a split extension /
Con’t from other side
Contour drawing was popular (in vogue) in classroom. The artist looks closely at the figure and in one continuous line, without looking down to see what he is drawing, draws the subject in lien. The idea is to emphasize mass and volume, just an outline of drawing.
The [“]Nicolaides Method,” “Natural way to draw”
(I UNDERSTAND DEKOONING WAS A PRACTITIONER OF CONTOUR DRAWING)
I called on the method in my life drawing classes at SAIC
I also emphasized Lautrec’s dry line in my fashion drawing classes

A note from LeRoy Neiman on his introduction to teaching.
Description
An account of the resource
This note from LeRoy Neiman concerns the artist’s foray into teaching. Told as anecdote, the artist relays his suspenseful exchange with then SAIC Dean, Hubert Ropp, which led to his initial hiring. As Neiman explains, what once seemed like a insult (i.e. a critique of the artist’s use of color) quickly morphed into a job offer. Neiman continued to teach at the institution for the following 10 years.
