 * Delete I prodded this with the reason "Fails WP:ARTIST." I also suspect autobio or a least a close COI. I've looked again and stand by my prod. He's got a few works in a couple galleries:, , he did indeed curate an exhibition in 1986 with passing mentions in the New York Times and New York magazine: , , NYT, New York, and a bizarre passing mention in the National Enquirer . Even with the things mentioned in the article (many of the links are currently broken), none of this adds up to meeting notability for a biography which needs multiple independent reliable third party sources.

 * Delete - Searches did not turn up enough in-depth coverage to show it doesn't pass WP:GNG, and they don't appear to meet WP:NARTIST, as pointed out by DGG.  Onel 5969  TT me 13:55, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
