“Olympic Village, Tuesday Sept 5, 11AM” is a poignant and powerful color screenprint from LeRoy Neiman’s Munich Suite (1973), created in response to the tragic events of the 1972 Munich Olympics.
Neiman’s expressive color and movement — typically celebratory in his sports imagery — here convey a more reflective tone, commemorating a day that changed the modern Olympic spirit.

Rendered in his distinctive painterly technique, the work stands as both a document of history and a testament to the artist’s emotional depth, marking one of his rare forays into narrative gravitas.
