NeoPopRealism[edit]

The claims to a "world-wide" movement are suspect. There is only one artist listed as a neopoprealist, Nadia Russ, who already has a page. This is not a dispute over her notability as an artist, but the questionable importance of a one-person art movement started in 2003. The only other artist mentioned uses the term "neopoprealism" once on his personal website with no indication of affiliation with Ms. Russ. The references all lead back to Nadia Russ' webpage, wikipedia, or discussion groups in which Ms. Russ belongs, as do any google searches, or are ads purchased in art magazine classified sections. There is no evidence of any notablity in this movement. Perhaps this can be merged with Ms. Russ' page, but even then it should only be a brief sentence.

Please also note that the creation of the article on NeoPopRealism has been written exclusively by contribs, who has made no other wiki contributions, and who by her own words has established the "concept" of NeoPopRealism as a product. Wikipedia is not a forum for advertising. Her words from the discussion page:

I was working in Art field for many years. I'm German. I know Nadia. I like NeoPR philosophy. I develope idea - "Be Beautiful". It is project "Nutrition for the Masses" We focus on non-animal meat. As I said NeoPR is wider, than just ARTs/painting. It's also health and beauty: We planning distribution by NYC license vendors with decorated hot carts-wagons on the streets & elegant casual dresses. I hired two such vendors to start selling crop meat in strategic popular special places in Manhattan. They'll be working from 9 am to 7 pm. The product purchased from important food US companies, who subsidiaries makes crop meat of all discriptions ready to go & prepared for the vendor and his grill. We'll charge no more than $1.99 for such "hefty minute meal" sandwich, for busy New Yorker. We'll include a fruit drink as well. . It's what we doing for humanity now. Health is beauty. Beauty is NeoPR.

Please check the following B. Murphy website, who works in NeoPR style. It's mentioned on the buttom of the following page: http://billmurphy.com/Biography.htm Also many other people and companies accepted NeoPopR and its ideas worldwide. For example French psychologist Jean-pier Royol uses her, N. Russ art in his art therapy. Please check his website: http://www.mylinea.com/search3.php?mc=nadia+russ&dir_ident=artherapie&newsites=

It's enough info. Well1234567 01.20.2007 — Well1234567 (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Please delete this article. There is nothing of substance said about art in the manifesto-like writing in this article, or, for that matter, in the article on Nadia Russ. There is no substantial citation for the entity being referred to as "NeoPopRealism." Bus stop 17:41, 23 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Only obfuscation is being employed to defend the inclusion of this article on Wikipedia. What do the referred to New York City licensed decorated vendor carts, elegant dresses, and crop meat products have to do with either art or art movements? The sole defender of the article claims to have worked in the art field for many years. If so, that person should be able to explain a point of view better than is seen in the above entry by User: Well1234567. Bus stop 21:29, 23 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete This "article" is nonsense. There is no justification for it being here. The gibberish being referred to is supposed to be "wider, than just ARTs/painting." Fine -- then what is it? This particular art movement is supposed to have been employed by the casino industry. How? If it can't even be described, and if it has no valid sources, it should be deleted right away.

The so-called sources are trivial or self published. Bus stop 07:01, 25 January 2007 (UTC) Bus stop 07:01, 25 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
