Amadour (born May 1, 1995, in Sparks, Nevada) is an American interdisciplinary artist, musician, and writer.[1] Their practice spans painting, songwriting, and composition, often combining geometric abstraction with orchestral pop and cultural criticism.[2] Recognized as “The Voice of Nevada” and “The High Desert Balladeer,”[3] Amadour's work addresses diasporic memory, queer subjectivity, and erased narratives through a perspective rooted in a Latinx experience in Nevada and the American West.[4][5][6]

Career

[edit]

Amadour's paintings, characterized by layered acrylics, gold leaf, and graphite, have been exhibited internationally with Kotaro Nukaga in Tokyo,[7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] FF Projects in Mexico,[16][17] and Emma Scully Gallery in New York.[18][19] They have participated in The Armory Show (New York)[20] and Tokyo Gendai (Yokohama)[21] and are scheduled for a 2026 exhibition "The Mapes Suite" at Truckee Meadows Community College in Reno.[22] Their essays and interviews[23][24] have appeared in frieze,[25] ARTnews,[26] and The Brooklyn Rail,[27][28][29] and their writing has been cited by ArtReview,[30] Monthly Art,[31] and archived at the Getty Research Institute.[32]
