Keep as he was included in multiple exhibitions/screenings at MoMA and the Whitney, including the 2004 Biennial and MoMA"s "Big As Life: An American History of 8mm Films" survey; his CV lists three for each museum, though I could only verify and added two for each -- It is important to remember that his most active period was in the 80's and early 90's and much of those RS in the arts are undigitized. His work is included in the Whitney collection. The article needs work, and there is a lot more on his CV [1]. I added an Artforum review. Theredproject (talk) 11:33, 23 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep as I found more reliable sources about his other works. Espngeek (talk) 12:01, 23 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Espngeek, please don't remove the AfD template from the page again. Vexations (talk) 13:15, 23 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I want to close this discussion as I found more reliable sources for his works (including recent articles about his collab with composer Lea Bertucci). Espngeek (talk) 12:39, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the subject's has work has received critical attention (criterion 4c) in Walley's Cinema Expanded:Avant-Garde Film in the Age of Intermedia, as an exponent of "contracted cinema" (criterion 2). He doesn't quite meet (4d) because it's only the Whitney, but well, it's the Whitney and there is hardly a more important collection his work could be in, except for MoMA, where his work has been shown, if not collected.

Keep One permanent collection and multiple shows in serious venues is a notability pass for me. --- Possibly (talk) 06:46, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Espngeek, you have been asked before to please not remove the AfD template from the page. This discussion will almost certainly close as keep when it is properly closed. Until then, please leave the template alone. Thanks. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 12:39, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note to closer I'm happy to withdraw per the above votes if that speeds the close, Espngeek's behaviour notwithstanding. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 12:41, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about my impatience, but what other sources do you need in order to not delete this article? Espngeek (talk) 13:04, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That's okay. As per the above, the article's safe and an admin should wander by soon and resolve this AfD properly. Until then, suggest sitting under a tree and reading a good book. Best Alexandermcnabb (talk) 13:08, 27 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
