JC Jacinto

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Good start, but, does not appear to pass WP:GNG. Perhaps these awards are major in the Philippines. I am not familiar with them (but contemporary Philippines art is not my speciality, however, contemporary art is).

Based on research I have done in English language sources, I cannot see how Jacino passes our guidelines for an artist and general at this time. Perhaps in the future. SarahStierch (talk) 22:41, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

 * Weak keep (though Sarah's concerns are entirely valid). Maybe it's a Filipino artist thing (not sure) but the fellow seems to use a few variations of his name and so finding sources (especially in English) is tough. That said, I was able to find the following:


 * JC Jacinto & Renz Baluyot opposing strengths by Pinggot Zulueta (Manila Bulletin – 11 November 2013)
 * Contemporary Art by JC Jacinto by Paul Viluda (Cruzine, 5 September 2013) - not sure whether we would consider that a reliable source.
 *  Gallery News: Pandy Aviado at The Crucible (The Philippine Star, 13 January 2014) - a passing mention about an exhibition.
 * DFA art exhibit opens today (ABS-CBNnews.com, 27 February 2012)
 * Exhibition Detail - you might be able to tell me whether this is a reliable source in the contemporary art world.
 * Strange Skins and Phosphene - again, no idea if this is a reliable source.


 * I suppose the point is that when the guy has an exhibition, it seems to generate a fair bit of coverage, at least in well-recognised local contemporary art sources. He's been featured several times at Manila's WestGallery which seems an important centre for Filipino contemporary art (and has featured some fairly important contemporary artists) and he created the cover art for this book, though I'm not sure if that adds much. My impression is that he's at least as notable as other contemporary Filipino artists, many of whom are covered here. I don't mean that as an WP:OTHERSTUFF argument, I just mean that if we're looking to equitably cover contemporary Filipino art, it would seem this guy should be on our list.
