About The Founder

Rudolph “Ever” Everett Ammarolex founded the AMMA Foundation while performing as Ammarolex, the Supreme Court Jester. He also developed the contemporary avant-garde art practice of Hypercubism in 1969.

Acting as Ammarolex was an act of political art that used ceremony, satire, and verse. Rudolph sought to treat power as theater in order to test how authority is performed, how language becomes law, and how laughter can reveal reality when direct speech ceases to engage with truth.

Under presidential patronage, Ammarolex currently occupies the White House State Ballroom as the official country clown: sanctioned, visible, and dangerous in the only way a jester can be. Satirically challenging the presidency itself, he auditioned and was elected by democratic process by the good people of The United States of America to usurp the presidency as the presence-to-be. Acting in plain sight exposed for Ever how easily legitimacy can be staged, repeated, and believed.

The Supreme Court Jester painted in their spare time, of which they had much.
