Lacks WP:RS, fails WP:GNG, nothing really notable for him to qualify for a Wikipedia page. Meeanaya (talk) 05:10, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: As well as the bylined short Encyclopedia of Contemporary Chinese Culture biography referenced in the article, there are available book references, such as a discussion of the subject's work in "Remaking Beijing: Tiananmen Square and the Creation of a Political Space". another in "The Urban Generation: Chinese Cinema and Society at the Turn of the Twenty-First Century", an image and discussion of an early group-work involving the subject, and multiple references to the subject in "Performance Art in China"; also an interview in The Independent. Overall I'd say there is sufficient for the WP:NARTIST criteria. AllyD (talk) 06:50, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per AllyD. Plenty of reliable sources with in-depth coverage to establish notability. -Zanhe (talk) 07:31, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep- Per above. --SalmanZ (talk) 10:39, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, per above (the page is well sourced) and per WP:CUTTINGOWNFINGEROFFINDEDICATIONTOPERFORMANCEART. Randy Kryn (talk) 11:29, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep individual entry in tertiary source (ie an encyclopaedia), referred to as top chinese artist in NYT, work held at International Center of Photography and MoMA NYC, clearly meets WP:ARTIST... WP:CUTTINGOWNFINGEROFFINDEDICATIONTODEMOCRACY.... did anyone mention WP:BEFORE?--Goldsztajn (talk) 11:48, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Enough sourcing out there (and as noted by editors above) that the subject of this article passes WP:ARTIST and WP:GNG standards for notability. Netherzone (talk) 13:33, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep because it passes WP:ARTIST. KartikeyaS343 (talk) 15:26, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
