The article has uncited statements, including entire paragraphs and a "citation needed" tag from November 2021. There's also a "Gallery" section at the end of the article which, per WP:NOTGALLERY I recommend that these images be redistributed throughout the article and this section removed.

Fully agreed on the citations. However, I think the article already has perhaps too great a density of images in the body: given that it's an article about an artist, the gallery is a good thing and should, if anything, be expanded. Despite the name of WP:NOTGALLERY, the supporting text actually says Wikipedia articles are not merely (emphasis mine) collections of ... photographs or media files with no accompanying text. That doesn't mean that Wikipedia articles shouldn't include galleries, and indeed we have artist FAs that use them very well: see e.g. Vincent Van Gogh, El Greco or Robert Peake the Elder.
