Comment: Does not appear to meet WP:NARTIST currently. Hitro talk 19:42, 23 March 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: As unless his works have been permanently collected by major art museums, there's simply nothing currently convincing for notability. SwisterTwister talk 21:27, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
- Comment: As previously mentioned when your article was declined before, you need to find more sources than just local Houston-based coverage of this individual in order to establish notability. RegistryKey(RegEdit) 07:24, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
- Comment: Good use of inline citation, thank you, but you need more than local press coverage to indicate general notability. Has anyone outside of Houston taken notice of this artist? 78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 03:54, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

Career
[edit]In 2013, Phillip Pyle II and Robert Hodge created "Beauty Box," a social sculpture.[2][10] They used furniture from thrift stores to recreate "a living room more or less in the image of their own grandparents' homes."[2] Pyle "wanted people to consider their own lives, their own history, their own grandmother's keen decorating sense as worthy of being declared art."[2] In 2014, they created an exhibition titled "The Black Guys" at the Art League, an homage to the Art Guys.[2] In 2015, Pyle's exhibition, "Black Panther Party Power" appeared at Fresh Arts, where he cast prominent members of the Black Panther Party as superheroes.[3][11][12] In 2021, Pyle's Broken Obelisk Elbows appeared at the 2021 Texas Biennial.[1] According to Texas Monthly, Broken Obelisk Elbows, "a satirical proposal for a public art intervention," was "the key to the entire show."[13] The work provided "an ironic, satirical commentary on who gets to do public monuments."[13] In 2024, his series "Forgotten Struggle," which featured photographs of the Civil Rights Movement edited so that the protestors are carrying blank signs, appeared at the FotoFest Biennial.[5]
