Improvements were made on 10/3/06 to provide reasons for notability: List of publication and newspaper reviews, List of Exhibitions, List of published art work in the U.S. B.P

Also, biased statements where made unbiased as noted by a 3rd party. B.P

Needs references

[edit]

As per Wikipedia:Notability (people), an article about a Creative professional needs to reference published, third-party sources about the subject backing up one of one of the following criteria that pertains to artists:

  • The person's work either:
  • (a) has been displayed in a significant exhibition or as a monument (current article fails)
  • (b) has won significant critical attention (current article fails)
  • (c) is represented within the permanent collection of a significant gallery or museum of more than local significance. (current article fails)

If any of these notability citations exists they need to be added to the article or it may be listed for deletion. Fountains of Bryn Mawr 19:33, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]


In response to "notability" concerns:

Criteria (a) & (b) have been satisfied:

a) Artist works have been displayed in numerous significant exhibitions:

2006 Sargent's Fine Art, Lahaina, HI; 2006 American Visions Fine Art, Folsom, CA; 2006 Northridge Gallery, Nortridge, CA; 2005 Sargent's Fine Art, Lahaina, HI; 2005 North Star Gallery, Freehold, NJ; 2005 American Visions Gallery, Folsom, CA; 2005 Oaks Gallery, Thousand Oaks, CA; 2005 Sargent's Fine Art, Lahaina, HI; 2004 Kayne Art Galleris of Georgia, Altanta, GA; 2004 American Visions Gallery, Folsom, CA; 2004 Art Expo New York; 2004 Sargent's Fine Art, Maui, HI; 2003 Kayne Fine Art Galleries, Altanta, GA; 2003 American Visions Gallery, Folsom, CA; 2003 Sargent's Fine Art, Kaanapali & Lahaina, Maui, HI; 2002 Kayne Art Galleries of Georgia, Atlanta, GA; 2002 Art Expo, New York, NY; 2001 Sargent's Fine Art, Maui, HI; 2001 Art Expo, New York, NY; 2001 Kayne Galleries, Atlanta, GA; 2000 Art Expo, New York, NY; 1999 Gallery 5, Palm Beach, NY; 1998 Gallery 5, Soho, New York; 1998 Art Expo, New York, NY; 1997 Art Expo, New York, NY; 1996 Art Miami, Miami, FL; 1996 Art Expo, New York, NY; 1994 Art Expo, New York, NY; 1993 Art Expo, New York, NY;

b) Artist has received significant critical attention. However, online versions of the news paper articles either never existed OR can no longer be found since they are over 3 years old. Therefore links to on-line versions of article can not be included. (Any suggestions?)

National Publication Reviews & Articles: Art World News - May 2004 Artist Vitae; Essex Magazine - April 2003; Vicinity Magazine - February 2003; Art Business News - April 2002; High Class Living - June 2000; Art Trends - October 1998; The Artist's Magazine - July 1998; Art Trends - January 1998; Design New Jersey - Spring 1997; Heritage Magazine- Spring 1997; High Class Living - April 1996; Newark Star Ledger - Friday, October 27, 1995

I have re-added the "notability" tag because (a) and (b) have not been addressed. Please read the tag and understand Wikipedia policies re: notability.
  • (a)-Commercial art exhibitions are not "significant exhibitions". "a significant exhibition" is an exhibit such as the Biennale, not a commercial gallery or Art Expo exhibit (the later simple implies the artist had money or backing to be in it... not "notability").
  • (b)-"significant critical attention" needs to come from well know art reviewers/critics/historians. Newspaper articles may only prove that the artists in question exists and is issuing press releases. That is not "notability". You could quote or paraphrase (with citations) any sources (such as newspaper articles) that meet these requirements.
This artist may not belong in Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not Askart.com - it does not keep a full directory of all artist... just notable ones. Fountains of Bryn Mawr 00:11, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In response to above "notability" concerns:

I have erased the content of the article while I research the content of the NewsPaper articles. A few of the newspaper articles have been written by well know art critics. Hard copies of articles will be obtained and citations will be added.

Undid page blanking. Blank pages do not belong in Wikipedia (WP:BLANK). Wikipedia pages are a collaborative effort. This page was put up by (another editor?) and should be left to be edited or tagged for deletion, but not BLANKED. If the page does not meet Wikipedia criteria then it should go through WP:SPEEDY. If you are claiming to be the original editor of this page please read WP:COI and WP:SOCK. Fountains of Bryn Mawr 12:10, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In response to above "notablility" concerns (6/23/07):

The National Publications section has been cleaned up and now consists of only the following:

1) Art World News - May 2004 article by Sarah Seamark (senior editor, Art World News)

2) Art Business News - April 2002 article by Audrey S. Chapman

3) The Artist's Magazine - July 1998 article by Debbie Hagan

4) Newark Star Ledger - Friday, October 27, 1995 review of one man exhibition by Eileen Watkins (art critic, Newark Star Ledger)

Regarding article #1: "Art World News" is a national art industry publication and a full page article on the artist was written & published by it's senior editor Sarah Seamark (www.artworldnews.com)

Regarding article #2: "Art Business News" is a national art publication. Please see the links below in regards to the authors of the article:

http://findarticles.com/p/search?tb=art&qt=%22Audrey+S.+Chapman%22

Regarding article #3: "The Artis's Magazine" is a noted national art magazine. Please see the links below in regards to the authors of the article:

http://findarticles.com/p/search?qt=%22Debbie+Hagan%22&qf=m0HMU

Regaring article #4: "Newark Star Ledger" is New Jersey's leading newspaper with circulation of over 300,000. Eileen Watkins, its noted art critic did a review of a one man exhibition by the artist which was published in the Newspaper.

Therefore the "Needs References" requiement as per Wikipedia's notability requirements has been satisfied since at least one article (article #4) about the creative professional has referenced, published, third-party sources about the artist backing up the criteria that pertains to artists:

The person's work either has won significant critical attention

Question for Administrator: Please adive if copy of the texts of the articles need to be included - or if links to the article will suffice

I have re-instated the NOTABILITY tag since we are still borderline here as to whether this artist meets Wikipedia's requirements re:notability. The citations you have above may pass muster but they are not immediately varifiable by me and other editors (although this may not be a requirement). A more basic problem is this article contains no statement as to why this person/place/thing is notable/encyclopedic. In my view you can accomplish this by expanding the main body of the article with paraphrases of what you found with citations:
"Art World News' senior editor Sarah Seamark, in an article about contemporary American impressionists, cited Bob Pejman is one of the most notable artist in that field" [1]. Debbie Haganin in an article in "The Artist's Magazine" stated that Bob Pejman is......
Above style of citing should work fine as long as what is cited does match Notability requirements. In addition you may want to quote the relevant material here in talk. Fountains of Bryn Mawr 16:16, 29 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

IIn response to above suggestions(7/5/07):

I have modified and expanded the article to include and conform to your requirments. I have removed the notibility tag. Please advise.
