Based on the notability guides and my searches, this does not seem to be a significant gallery. It has mainly been created, edited and maintained by SPA editors. I do not have enough knowledge about the sector to satisfactorily pass judgement, but as an outsider it really seems to be short of notability. Hoping for some input from more informed editors.

- Delete Fails WP:GNG. I can find no significant coverage in reliable sources about the gallery itself. Also, all the content, bar copyediting, has been added by editors with what look to be prima facie WP:COI issues. Edwardx (talk) 20:58, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
- Comment: Indeed. and sad to say, it is endemic amongst related artists (i.e. a number of artists have had representation by this gallery inserted into their articles by infrequent contributors along a similar pattern). Being an outsider to the world of contemporary art, I found it difficult to assess notability and was a little hesitant to nominate some (so apologies if I'm way off the mark).

- I'd say 90% of Wikipedians have zero idea about the world of art which is why they so easily get deleted. On the other hard, sports figures on Wikipedia is like International Triviaville Extraordinaire! --MurderByDeletionism"bang!" 00:49, 19 December 2015 (UTC)
