Description from the seller
AMA (1985) - "Aurora Contrefaçon Originale" - 8/30
When counterfeiting becomes an original work.
After the triumph of the Aurora Borealis series by AMA, often copied and on the way to being censored by luxury giants under the guise of 'counterfeiting,' artist Pope strikes even harder.
Here is 'Aurora Contrefaçon Originale': a bold pop art lamp, a slap in the face to censorship, and a luminous manifesto for the freedom of creation.
A unique pop art lamp, where you can clearly read 'DO NOT BUY' and 'COUNTERFEIT'... Making it even more tempting to own.
The day: a shiny, chrome teddy bear with a silver finish.
The night: a multicolored aurora borealis ignites your interior.
An ironic contrast between prohibition and desire.
Limited edition of 30 pieces for 2025, signed, numbered, and delivered with an AMA certificate of authenticity.
Fast and secure shipping (bubble wrap, silk paper, reinforced cardboard) with delivery against signature.
Features :
7 luminous colors
- 3 modes of diffusion (fixed, faded transitions, simple transitions)
Power supply via USB cord with switch (supplied)
Height: 20 cm
- Width: 9 cm
Depth: 9 cm
Who is AMA?
Born from the fusion of talents of French artist friends, the AMA collective takes you into its universe blending vibrant colors and diverse materials.
Sculptures, paintings, and installations, the collective passionately employs a multitude of techniques to bring its works to life.
The AMA collective mainly draws its inspiration from the world around it, but also through currents of renowned artists such as Banksy, Keith Haring, Koons, Orlinski, Takashi, Fred Allart, Shepard Fairey, Warhol, Yayoi Kusama, Richard Hamilton, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Alec Monopoly, KAWS, Pantone, Mr. Brainwash, Blek le Rat, to name just a few.
Whether for a gift, a keepsake, or your personal collection of contemporary art, you will easily find your favorite piece thanks to the diversity of our works. Indeed, AMA pursues its passion for urban art through street art and pop art creations (limited edition or not), covering a wide range of themes such as cryptocurrencies (bitcoin, ethereum), the dollar, money, gold, wealth, the sex industry, drug abuse, luxury and haute couture brands, the world of comics and video games, the pharmaceutical industry and medications, recycling and upcycling, as well as products from the agro-food and fashion industries (sports, sneakers...).
Brands guide our choices and often our lives without us realizing it. Aware of this impact, AMA likes to playfully reinterpret labels such as Louis Vuitton (LV), Chanel, Dior, Hermès, Prada, Gucci, Rolex, Yves Saint Laurent (YSL), Supreme, Obey, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche, Bugatti, AMG, Mercedes, Nike (Air Jordan), Adidas (Stan Smith), Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Marvel and Avengers (Batman, Joker, Superman...), Disney (Mickey, Scrooge...), Nintendo, Sega, Tintin, Lego, Pokemon, Vans, and many others.
