AMA • Pope (1985) - Aurora Original-Fälschung

AMA • Pope (1985) - "Aurora Original Forgery" - 5/30

When the copy becomes more real than the original.

After the success of the AMA Aurora Borealis series — imitated, copied and finally censored in the name of trademark law — the artist Pope returns with a new luminous provocation.

This time, a tribute to Germany and its obsession with industrial rigor: here is 'Aurora Original-Fälschung'.

A pop-art lamp whose base plainly displays 'FÄLSCHUNG' (counterfeit in German), accompanied by the ironic warning 'NICHT KAUFEN'. It's hard to resist the urge to bid.

By day, a chrome teddy bear with metallic reflections, almost futuristic.
At night, a blaze of multicolored auroras that lights up your walls.
A striking contrast, a deliberate irony: transforming the fake copy into a genuine work of art.


Limited edition of 30 copies for 2025, signed, numbered, and delivered with an AMA certificate of authenticity.
Fast and careful shipping (bubble wrap, tissue paper and reinforced cardboard) with signature required.

A collectible object that turns censorship into art, and transforms the « Aurora Original-Fälschung » into a genuine original.
