AMA • Pope (1985) - Aurora Contrefaçon Originale

AMA • Pope (1985) - "Aurora Contrefaçon Originale" - 12/30

When counterfeiting becomes an original work.

After the triumph of the Aurora Borealis series from AMA, often copied and on the verge of censorship by luxury giants under the pretext of “counterfeiting,” the artist Pope strikes even harder.

Here is "Aurora Contrefaçon Originale": a pop art lamp with a bold stance, a wink at censorship, and a luminous manifesto for creative freedom.
A unique pop art lamp, where one can read in full letters "DO NOT BUY" and "COUNTERFEIT"… A temptation to acquire it even more.

The day: a gleaming chrome silver teddy bear.
The night: a multicolored aurora borealis blazes your interior.
An ironic contrast between prohibition and desire.
