*'''Comment''': [http://www.gallery21-daiba.com/ Here]'s Gallery 21. I hadn't heard of it, but it's an actual gallery, as we can see [http://www.gallery21-daiba.com/about-gallery-21/ here]. I think that "not in a notable location (a hotel)" (in the nomination above) is overly dismissive: it's not as if the works were displayed in an elevator hall. That said, "literally making it one of the largest photographic exhibitions Tokyo had seen"? Why haven't I (in Tokyo) heard of this? I clicked on the reference, and read that "some [prints] measure over 3x2m, making for one of the largest photographic exhibitions Tokyo has seen". So at the least, quotation marks are needed. In terms of surface area, perhaps this was indeed one of the largest photographic exhibitions Tokyo had seen. After all, wall space in central Tokyo isn't cheap, helping to make Tokyo's major exhibition spaces largely immune to the fashion elsewhere for print gigantism; while there's a lot more space in Daiba=Odaiba, on reclaimed land to the south.

Article does not demonstrate notability. Has no independent reliable sources. Only 1 exhibition listed, which was not in a notable location (a hotel), for which 2 of the 3 sources are for, one of them being a primary source. The only other source is a primary source for membership of the industry body the British Press Photographers Association. The article's claim of "one of the largest photographic exhibitions Tokyo had seen" is not credible, written slightly out of context and sourced to a non-reliable source. A quick web search does not give cause to believe the subject satisfies WP:GNG or WP:ARTIST. Lopifalko (talk) 17:38, 9 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment: Here's Gallery 21. I hadn't heard of it, but it's an actual gallery, as we can see here. I think that "not in a notable location (a hotel)" (in the nomination above) is overly dismissive: it's not as if the works were displayed in an elevator hall. That said, "literally making it one of the largest photographic exhibitions Tokyo had seen"? Why haven't I (in Tokyo) heard of this? I clicked on the reference, and read that "some [prints] measure over 3x2m, making for one of the largest photographic exhibitions Tokyo has seen". So at the least, quotation marks are needed. In terms of surface area, perhaps this was indeed one of the largest photographic exhibitions Tokyo had seen. After all, wall space in central Tokyo isn't cheap, helping to make Tokyo's major exhibition spaces largely immune to the fashion elsewhere for print gigantism; while there's a lot more space in Daiba=Odaiba, on reclaimed land to the south. No matter where it took place -- and (O)daiba was (is still?) a trendy place -- did this large exhibition make some impact? If it did, this isn't obvious. I presume that Gallina's name would have been Japanized as ピーター・ガリーナ or ピーター・ガリナ; but a search in Google for the latter brings nothing while one for the former brings a tiny number of mentions in blogs, on Facebook, etc, but nothing of significance (other than for Peter+Galina). So all in all, notability in Japan(ese) is not apparent. -- Hoary (talk) 23:56, 12 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
