Tropico 4,145 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 This thread is to show how Gaga succeded in ARTPOP's concept. She wasn't on top this era in sales, true... But Gaga has kept her artistic integrity and has managed to bring ARTPOP to life. The concept was a SUCCESS. So here's just a couple of images I've found to show those who are confused about Gaga bringing ART into POP. Maybe visuals will show you what Gaga has done. I do not wish to discuss the sales of ARTPOP but instead the concept. The Era started with Gaga being making herself the canvas... In the most literal sense possible. She brought some of the most famous artworks into one of her favorite arts... Fashion. Yes, art is a fashion. One of the most recognised art references this era was The Birth Of Venus. This came alive in her music (an art) and fashion. Lady Gaga is known for amazing performances. This era Gaga was obsessed with art. So what is could be better than bringing a performance artist into her pop song. Bringing art into pop... In the most exciting manner. Young performance artist millie brown was not the only artist to co-operate in bringing Gaga's vision to life. She worked with other internationally known artists. Gaga is not only every icon... But she is also art. She turned herself into art. The artist becomes the art. Slay. (Artist: Nathan Sawaya. Lego artist. This sculpture was a re-creation of the sculpture Yellow) And while the ARTPOP era didn't bring many videos to Gaga's career it certainly managed to pack a lot of art into each one. The Applause video has TONS of references but here is one I like a lot. So please... Do not brush ARTPOP off as simply "anything". Think more about what Gaga says and does. When she said it could mean anything I believe she meant that ARTPOP is art... Art is not in black and white. You have to interpret it for yourself. And there could be many meanings an artist tries to send. But it is up to you to find out what it means for you. And once you find out the meaning... Ask yourself... What does ARTPOP mean to me? What does my ARTPOP mean? Can we just appreciate this album + era just for now? Let's make ARTPOP a celebration like Gaga has always wanted. :hug: ♢ Social Justice Enthusiast ♢ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

djBuffoon 12,120 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 I don't know about anyone else, but this album in particular inspired me to be bolder in my personal form of art (theatre), it got me really interested in the ideas behind performance art, and it gave me a lot to think about in terms of critical deconstruction. What I take away from the album is the following: Be pure in your intentions, be bold in your vision, and protect both fiercely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bye 3,947 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 I don't connect with it like I do BTW because I'm not interested in art for the most part nor am I what you'd call artistic, but despite many disappointments I enjoyed the performances, the 2.5 videos we got and yes, even the music. So thank you, Gaga. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
