  • Weak delete A Google search shows evidence of exhibitions in Spain [1] and New York City [2], but I need more to demonstrate that the subject is either "widely recognized" or "likely to become a part of the enduring historical record of that field" (per WP:BIO). Give me a review in a reputable art periodical or textbook, and I'll consider WP:BIO and WP:V satisfied. Caknuck 01:18, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak keep. I couldn't find any reviews, but he's had at least 50 international exhibitions in these countries - England, Spain, France, Hong Kong, Italy, USA, Switzerland and Argentina. oops forgot my sig Roaming27 00:02, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak delete - I'm close to agreeing with Roaming27 based on the number of exhibitions. However, I also couldn't find any reviews or independant coverage (other than a reference on Darnell's Blanccanvas site that he had been reviewed by a Spanish art critic). Without any reviews or independent coverage I don't know how you go about verifying the information in the article. -Kubigula (ave) 23:46, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
