Henry Hudson: Artist

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Non-notable artist lacking GHits and GNEWS of substance. References in article do not support WP:BIO or WP:ARTIST or do not meet WP:RS criteria.  ttonyb (talk) 07:34, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

Keep His exhibition in the Trolley Gallery was a subject of multiple independent reviews, ,. You can find more informations about this artist for example in The New York Times, Cosa Gallery, London Evening Standard etc. --Vejvančický (talk) 08:45, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Link #2 listed above is a press-release. The Cosa Gallery link does not count as it is his gallery's write-up on him. The New York Times article is not about his art but uses him as an example of the cost of living in London. The other links are legitimate coverage, although the London Evening Standard seems to be the only high-profile coverage.  freshacconci  talk talk  12:29, 16 March 2010 (UTC)c
 * Thanks for your useful input, Freshacconci. I included the NYT link, because it says that ...paintings have already earned him several well-reviewed gallery exhibits, and this is important for our consideration. Additionally, you can find a reliable information about his future project here. Personally I think Hudson meets our criteria for artists, as his works has been the subject of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews. --Vejvančický (talk) 12:55, 16 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep Culture24 is a very reputable site and dedicates an article. Exhibition at Hiscox with Stella Vine: see review in The First Post  (go to pages 2 and 3). Also solo show at Hiscox. Plus other coverage as above and in the article.  Ty  14:30, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Apologies for some of the entries which may not have the strongest anchorage to 'notable' links but I hope you can see that this is a legitimate entry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chewbacca66 (talk • contribs) 13:45, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Richard Dorment, art critic of The Daily Telegraph described Hudson and fellow artist Laurence Owen as: "Astonishing Young Painters". --Chewbacca66 (talk) 18:09, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Do you have a reference for that? The Daily Telegraph did say: "New Artists: One of the freshest group shows in years, featuring the remarkable work of Henry Hudson and Laurence Owen, at London's most interesting new gallery. 20 Hoxton Square, London N1" in May 2007.
