 * Speedy keep if it's good for Nationalencyklopedin (https://www.ne.se/uppslagsverk/encyklopedi/l%C3%A5ng/erland-brand) and Store norske leksikon (https://snl.no/Erland_Brand), it's good for us. Thanks and regards, Biwom (talk) 17:07, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep. I agree with Biwom that these encyclopedia entries confirm notability (and they should be added as references), and I also note that the listed exhibitions strongly suggest notability, and that the Swedish Wikipedia article has a few more potentially useful sources.--Arxiloxos (talk) 20:07, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep meets WP:NARTIST, exhibitions at: Nordic Watercolour Museum ("5 May to 1 September 2002 Contemporary Nordic watercolour"), Göteborgs Konsthall ("Erland Brand, who is exhibiting at Gothnburg Konsthall in March,") and here, "Erland Brand, Göteborgs Konsthall, 15/3 – 27/4 2014" - a review of the exhibition, in Swedish, Swedish Academy ("2011 Nug & Erland Brand, Konstakademien, Sweden"), Strandverket Art Museum ("Winter Exhibition: 30 November, 2014 - 6 January, 2015"), Gothenburg Museum of Art ("Bibliographic Record: Tore Ahnoff, Erland Brand, Lennart Landqvist, Jens Mattiasson, Lars Swan: Five painters from: exhibition, Gothenburg Art Museum, 29th Sept. 4, Nov. 1984")(in Swedish, exhibition catalogue), Värmlands Museum ("Until March 6th, the exhibition at the Värmland Museum will be exhibited with Erland Brands" - in Swedish), btw swedish, and german wikipedias have had articles on brand for many years.

 * Keep Per Biwom. /Julle (talk) 17:27, 14 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Keep Essentially as per Biwom. Also a far fetched COI angle here: "a user that has a declared COI for a member of his family", is not true. I have declared no such thing, anywhere, ever. In any case, it should not be a part of this deletion discussion that people I know, and I, have added images and info, and that he's the second cousin of the deceased father of the image donor whom I also know. --SergeWoodzing (talk) 15:01, 16 October 2017 (UTC)
