This article appears to be well-sourced but none of them get the subject over the hurdle of WP:GNG or WP:NARTIST. A quick source analysis: Source 1 and 2 are WP:INTERVIEWS and thus primary sources. Source 4 is an official corporate bio and thus also a primary source. Source 5 is a paid press release. Source 6 is a gallery website and thus a primary source. Sources 7, 8 and 9 are WP:TRIVIALMENTIONs that do not provide WP:SIGCOV. Sources 10 and 11 appear to provide significant coverage, but it is actually marketing material. The publisher--Artoze--describes itself as an "International Online Art Gallery ... We excel in creating strategic art events to boost the visibility of the brands helping them gain more footfall and catalyzing the business growth." This is a marketing platform, not a reliable and independent source. The final source left is 3, Slimi Magazine, whose independence is uncertain. (Other articles seem to be directly provided by the artists profiled.) Even if Slimi works for GNG, more secondary, reliable, independent sources are needed. There in particular appears to be no independent, secondary sourcing for the claims about Nasr's artistic style and approach. Dclemens1971 (talk) 21:25, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete per nomination. The claim of pioneering "Expressive Color Minimalism" doesn't mean anything, because Expressive Color Minimalism is a made-up term. Diverging from the conventional gallery system, Nasr donates many of his works to schools and charitable causes. with a reference to a local arts listing.
