Note on Art

A list of adages from LeRoy Neiman, pertaining to his artistic career.

This fragmented note from LeRoy Neiman contains a list of personal adages, pertaining to that artist's career. In the document’s right hand corner, Neiman has written "Dean’s Gallery" in pencil. The artist had a solo exhibition at the Houston-based gallery in 1982. That said, the relationship between the body of the record and this pseudo-title proves unclear.
