LEAD:
The importance of the artist is clear in the lead. To fix: the phrase "grew interested with" is awkward. The phrase "eventually focusing completely on" is too wordy. In the phrase, "dust, dirt, junk," put an and between dirtand junk.The word junk is colloquial. Do you mean found objects? I am not sure if the comma between "critical acclaim, and has been" is necessary.
STRUCTURE:
I agree. Career is a better subheading than Works and Philosophy.
GRAMMER:
Evaluate comma placement. Examples: "San Paulo, Brazil, as the..." take out comma after Brazil. "To enter an contest which he won" put comma between contest and which. "Not press charges, and used" take out comma between charges and used.
Add the article a between Muniz, and restaurant waiter."
Be careful about how many times you use the word which. You write it frequently. Example: "... to enter an art contest which he won..."
You should activate some phrases that are grammatically passive. For example, "...he won and was awarded," or, "...he was accidentally shot in the leg by one of the brawlers." Try "...one of the brawlers accidentally shot him in the leg."
BALANCE & NEUTRALITY:
So far so good.
SOURCES:
Reference #10 on the live wiki page asks for help. What is with the citing for source #19? Can you revise source #25? Error in link to source #26. Nice list of books coming in, as seen on your sandbox.
Last Thoughts:
I hope you organize the Curatorial Projectssection. Awards intermix with the curatorial projects; organize in complete sentences, and find citations. What if you gave Awards its own subheading section?
Good to add information to Early Life and Career. This will be a great improvement to the article. Katgosnell107 (talk) 20:41, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

I really like how you put the pronunciation of his name there.
The article is clear on introducing the artist and what the artist does. It is also all organized well, and I know that you guys aren’t done but it looks like you guys are on the right track. The table of contents shows that everything looks organized. The phrasing where it starts "junk" and the wording after it is kind of confusing to me. Maybe the junk isn't the right wording or maybe their needs to be a comma somewhere. Or maybe the sentence is just too long in general.
Maybe add some more information about his life now, where he works, etc. Like add a new section or add on to the career section talking about his life now. Where does he work? Does he have a family? And also maybe mention some of his recent works or where his work has been.
The overall tone of the article is pretty neutral. I think by adding more things about his life in the present will help create an overall better tone. Under the career section it sounds like it is telling a story (like when you talk about when he was first coming into the country and talking about when he was shot) so maybe make it sound more like facts.
It looks like some sources need to be added to the early life and career sections. And the sources at the bottom aren't done correctly.
I know you guys still have some stuff to add, I can see it from the outline at the bottom but keep going! Everything looks good so far.
