Keep. He been the subject of an article in the Routledge Encyclopedia of Modernism ([1]) which describes him as the "most well known Malawian artist". (This article is, by the way, the very first Google search result for his name.) If he's prominent enough to be the subject of a biographical article in another encyclopedia, he passes WP:NARTIST/WP:BASIC. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 04:22, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per AleatoryPonderings. I was about to mention the same Routledge encyclopedia entry. Along with the several museum catalogues, the travel guide entries and a few other Google books items, this just makes it. ThatMontrealIP (talk) 05:51, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - based on findings by AleatoryPonderings and ThatMontrealIP. Clearly passes WP:GNG and WP:ARTIST. Netherzone (talk) 15:29, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per AleatoryPonderings. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 12:34, 29 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
