Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aliza Shvarts (2nd nomination)
Both issues should be addressed at once. {{u|Vexations}} had the right idea. This compartmentalized reasoning is detrimental. Artist and artwork are closely related subjects. Especially in the case of a merely ten-year-old career. I think there should be only one article. The other article is about an artwork even if that artwork never existed. A concept of an artwork is still an artwork. We are not the arbiters of what is and isn't art. The sources all refer to art or performance art in that "abortion" piece. No source is referring to it as a controversy. Sources might refer to the controversy in the wake of Shvarts' performance art. There are many parallels between this situation and that found at Mattress Performance (Carry That Weight). That article is not in the name of Emma Sulkowicz but obviously a redirect facilitates search. The article is in the name of the main artwork. And "controversy" does not grace its title. The parallels end in that an important dispute involved the accused rapist (and fellow student) that was targeted by the "Mattress Performance", necessitating a separate article, titled Columbia University rape controversy. That article's title receives the term "controversy" but importantly it is not about an artwork. There is no good reason I can think of to have the term "controversy" in the title of the Shvarts performance piece. The name of that article could be the name of the artwork or a |descriptive title such as "Yale student abortion art" or other possibilities
