Soundproof Aesthetic of Luxuriety

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable artwork. There some coverage, but I don't see that it rises to the point where this is demonstrated as a notable subject. The fact that Kristek was a co-author on the source by Barbora Purkova has been conveniently left out. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 20:11, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete - This non-notable sculpture fails to meet GNG guidelines. Netherzone (talk) 21:09, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable. The artist article Lubo Kristek has its own notability issues in my view, not a great merge target.  --Lockley (talk) 02:10, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree with you on the notability issues, but someone has gone to a lot of effort to create some and publish several dubious sources for his work. but that's another discussion.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 03:23, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi -- we agree. Lubo Kristek looks to me at least 30% composed of the artist's intentions, as thrillingly outré as they may be, and I suspect its foundations are bad.  .....and (smile) that's a different discussion.  --Lockley (talk) 14:21, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Hello and  I am also in agreement that there are notability issues with Lubo Kristek. The whole article seems over-blown which makes me question a lot of the claims in it. Netherzone (talk) 18:46, 3 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete I can't find any sources that are independent of the subject. The Kristek Thaya Glyptotheque and the Research Institute of Communication in Art are closely affiliated. It would be different if the works had been acquired by a museum or notable collection of some sort, or been mentioned in an independent source. Vexations (talk) 15:45, 3 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge I have found an independent source (I added it to the article). The title of the artwork in Czech is "Odhlučněná estetika luxusna" and is mentioned in the selection in the added article. I have recently copyedited the artist's page and added more sources (incl. an encyclopedy). I think there is not enough source and information for a main article about this work of art. However, I think that the information should be merged with the artist's page as it seems to me that it is an important artwork within the scope of his body of work.Bibliof (talk) 16:23, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I think you are vastly overestimating the importance of this work. For an important work would it would be easy to find half a dozen sources.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 16:44, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
