The biography is chock full of vanity galleries. Including a new one: Trevisan International Art. Almost everything that could satisfy N is unverifiable. Premio alla Carriera, The Manifestation of the Spiritual in Art, Della Critica, Medaglia del Presidente della Repubblica is unverifiable. The only mentions of it are on this article and Morant’s webpage. Only thing that is legit is the Montana Lindauer Art Award award. But... there is apparently an exhibition of finalists, then one awardee. I couldn’t verify whether he won the award, let alone whether he was in the exhibition. There are only a few copies of the exhibition catalog, and all in NZ. Even if he were to have won the award, I don’t think it is enough for N. For example, there isn't article on the award. And Only one other bio on en wiki cites it, despite the fact many but not all of the awardees have articles here. That article Megan Jenkinson derives is N from multiple museum collections.

Delete. I follow the NYC arts community closely. This person has never had an exhibit at a major gallery. Bearian (talk) 23:20, 8 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
