About the Item
"Equestrian Horseman" is a mixed media on paper by LeRoy Neiman. The artwork is signed lower right, "Leroy Neiman '66". The framed piece measures 40 3/4 x 46 1/2 x 1 1/2 in.
LeRoy Neiman (1921-2012) is an American artist known for his paintings and screen prints of athletes, musicians, celebrities and sporting events, in his distictive style, which is a combination of Abstract Expressionism, Impressionism, Action Painting and Fauvist use of color.
Neiman is one of the greatest American artists, according to his New York Times Obituary, alongside Norman Rockwell and Andrew Wyeth.
Andy Warhol called Neiman " the most important Pop artist of his time” and exhibited with him in LeRoy Neiman, Andy Warhol : an exhibition of sports paintingsat the Los Angeles Institute of Contemporary Art in 1981.
.
Neiman created illustrations for Playboy, Sports Illustrated, Harper's Bazaar and dozens of other well-known magazines.
In his later years, he established the LeRoy Neiman Foundation and donated nearly $20 million – a perhaps unprecedented amount for a living artist – to art institutions as well as to programs that helped disadvantaged young artists around the United States.
Neiman's art appealed to people far beyond the walls of museums and avant-garde galleries: it captured the attention and affection of people who were impassioned players in the American dream of toil, sweat, and success.
Since Neiman's passing in 2012, his appeal continues to grow:
The Smithsonian’s Museum of American History has just renamed their cafe the LeRoy Neiman Jazz Cafe, including his monumental Big Band jazz original in their permanent collection.
Neiman was included in the prestigious exhibit for American artists associated with Columbia University at the Inside Out Museum in Beijing, increasing his international recognition.
Neiman had a one-man retrospective called Sports traveled around America's major universities that initiated at Louisiana State University.
Neiman is in the permanent collections of 144 museums worldwide, including the Hermitage Museum, Brooklyn Museum of Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Art Institute of Chicago, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Museum of Modern Art, New York and San Francisco, Philadelphia Museum of Art and Whitney Museum of American Art and was exhibited at the Hammer Galleries, New York and the Franklin Bowles Gallery, New York and San Francisco.

The inscription reads: For David & Barbara Ronnie Cutrone 90 Book information: Publisher: Martin Lawrence Limited Editions, (January 1, 1990) English; Hardcover; 46 pages with 44 color and 11 monochrome illustrations About Ronnie Cutrone: Ronnie Cutrone (July 10, 1948 – July 21, 2013) was an American pop artist known for his large-scale paintings of some of America's favorite cartoon characters, such as Felix the Cat, Pink Panther, Woody Woodpecker and No Glove No Love. Cutrone's paintings are colorful, lively, and less challenging than those of his contemporaries. As Andy Warhol's assistant at the Factory atop the Decker Building from 1972 until 1980, Cutrone worked with Warhol on paintings, prints, films, and other concepts, eventually co-opting Warhol's earliest work (pre-1960) as well as works by Roy Lichtenstein and others, until finally distilling those myriad influences into the style a few critics eventually labeled "Post-Pop." He exhibited at the Niveau Gallery in 1979 with a Scottish artist called Mike Gall who showed paintings of Snoopy, Mickey and Minnie mouse, the Pink Panther and also a small series of Peter Rabbit paintings...Category
