AMA • Pope (1985) - "Aurora Nova" - LOUIS VUITTON - 9/20

Following the luminous works of the original Aurora Borealis collection, discover "Aurora Nova", a handcrafted customized illuminated pop sculpture in a limited edition of 20 copies for 2025, themed around the French haute couture house Louis Vuitton (this is not an official brand object).

A strong, minimalist, contemporary sculptural presence: the elegant mirrored sphere attracts the eye when off, then reveals, once illuminated, an intense and hypnotic light explosion at its core.

The iconic LV monogram, suspended at the center of the sphere, becomes the focal point of the piece. It seems to float in a vibrant luminous universe, creating a spectacular and immediately recognizable visual effect.

Aurora Nova embodies a clean, confident vision of light: a strong, direct, immersive light signature, designed as a true contemporary pop artwork.

The limited edition applies exclusively to the graphic customization and artistic finish carried out by the artist Pope, and not to the base commercially manufactured illuminated sculpture.

Who is Pope?

Pope, cofounder of the AMA collective, develops a singular artistic universe driven by a practice of visual arts since childhood, a strong attention to detail, and meticulous visual research.
Through sculptures, paintings and installations, he draws inspiration from photography, urban landscapes, and everyday scenes, with a sensitive and wonder-filled gaze, attentive to both the simplicity and the complexity of the world around him.

Pope primarily draws inspiration from the world around him but also from movements 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 a few.

Whether as a gift, a keepsake, or your personal collection of contemporary art, you will easily find your favorite among our works. Indeed, Pope pursues his urban art passion through street art (streetart) and pop art (popart) creations (in limited or unlimited editions), addressing 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 medicines, recycling and upcycling, and products of the agri-food and fashion industries (sport, sneakers...).

Brands guide our choices and often our lives without us realizing it. Aware of this impact, Pope enjoys playfully subverting 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 McDuck...), Nintendo, Sega, Tintin, Lego, Pokemon, Vans and many others.

Dear bidders, our collective makes every effort to ensure that all information necessary to appreciate the lot is clearly detailed in the listing: dimensions, weight, description and photos... After the sale, no unfounded claims will be considered. Thank you for your understanding.
