Inman Gallery

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Obscure commercial gallery; literally every reference is a directory listing from various Houston "what's in town" publications. No substantial coverage; the "reviews" in external links are reviews of exhibits at the gallery, not of the gallery. Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  22:04, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete A gallery that participates in Armory Show and Art Basel and represents artists whose works are exhibited at the Whitney Museum and the Metropolitan Museum of Art is hardly "obscure". On the other hand, I'm fairly certain that the creator Obrienmp412 has a massive Conflict of Interest. There is not sufficient in-depth coverage of the gallery (or its owner, Kerry Inman) to satisfy WP:NCORP. It would be better to focus our attention on their artists, Dario Robleto,Amy Blakemore, Michael Jones McKean, Jason Salavon, Sigrid Sandström, Karin Davie, Marc Swanson, Tommy Fitzpatrick, Brad Tucker, Angela Fraleigh, Demetrius Oliver, Dana Frankfort, Robyn O'Neil and Darren Waterston whose bios could use some work.

 * Delete - locally-known art gallery. While Houston is a major art capital, there's a lack of significant coverage that this place has actually contributed to the city's reputation, a la Menil Gallery. Bearian (talk) 20:05, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
 * , the claim " Houston is widely recognized as an important city for contemporary visual arts" has a [citation needed] tag on it, and looking at the galleries listed at Category:Art galleries in Texas, I see at least three galleries that are less notable than this one. There are good art commercial art galleries in Houston of course. We just can't seem to have any articles on them. Vexations (talk) 21:29, 21 July 2020 (UTC)
