AMA • Pope (1985) - Neon Paradise

AMA • Pope (1985) - "Neon Paradise" - 4/20 Dive into a neon vision of the sacred with this crucifix signed by Pope, entirely handmade in a limited edition of 20 copies for 2025. On a matte black cross stands out a fluorescent pink Christ, whose light seems to pass through the very material. Under blue or UV lighting, the piece literally ignites: the cross emits splendid glows, while the body of Christ shines with an almost supernatural radiance (see photos). Between pop provocation and spiritual fascination, "Neon Paradise" plays with the codes of religion and contemporary visual culture. An timeless symbol revisited, at the crossroads of the sacred and the spectacular. The cross can be placed or hung thanks to its discreet notch on the back. Editioned artwork, dated, signed and delivered with an authenticity certificate "AMA". Fast and careful shipping (bubble wrap, tissue paper and cardboard) with sign-for-delivery. Sculpture crafted for commercial purposes, handmade by the artist Pope using a mixed technique combining epoxy resin casting, artisanal coloring of the Christ figure and manual assembly of the whole. Who is Pope? Pope, cofounder of the AMA collective, develops a singular artistic universe driven by a practice in the visual arts since childhood, a strict attention to detail and careful visual research. Through sculptures, paintings and installations, he draws inspiration from photography, urban landscapes and everyday scenes, with a sensitive and awed look, attentive to both the simplicity and the complexity of the world around him. Pope mainly 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 just a few. Whether it’s a gift, a keepsake or your personal collection of contemporary art, you’ll easily find your favorite piece thanks to the diversity of our works. Indeed, Pope pursues his passion for street art through street art (streetart) and pop art (popart) (in limited edition or not), addressing a wide range of themes such as cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum), the dollar, money, gold, wealth, the sex industry, drug abuse, luxury fashion brands, the world of comics and video games, the pharmaceutical industry and medicines, recycling and upcycling, food and fashion industry products (sport, sneakers...). Brand names guide our choices and often our lives without us realizing it. Aware of this impact, Pope likes to mischievously distort 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 more. Dear bidders, our collective makes every effort to ensure that all information necessary for appreciating the lot is clearly detailed in the listing: dimensions, weight, description and photos... After the sale, no unjustified claims will be accepted. Thank you for your understanding.
