About this Piece

About this Piece

One of LeRoy’s first forays into art was creating posters for local merchants at a young age to advertise their store sales. Later, as an established artist, he often made posters to commemorate and promote special sporting and cultural events. Neiman’s posters remain a tribute to his vibrant work and life.

Widely known for his exuberance and celebratory mindset, Neiman was unmatched in his ability to portray cultural events and festivals. The artist painted Broadway show sets, illustrated album covers, and created posters for events like the Newport Jazz Festival. These works convey movement, music, and the sheer excitement of partaking in a momentous occasion.
