judxs 762 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 It's been discussed a million times before but eh I'm still gonna drop this here as much as i love this photo... it doesn't have any sort of link to the theme of 'ARTPOP' besides possibly being a reference to aura Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Better Day 5,766 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 It is creative and beautiful like the album. Everything about ARTPOP is perfect. Together You And I! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crisTEAne 21,059 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Imo there have been fan edits of the cover that really showed the potential of the design without the ridiculous execution. For example: these are horrendous, imo. if you hurt taylor swift, i'll hurt you back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
barcodemonster 3,525 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 The ARTPOP cover is very memorable and may be iconic scan my barcode Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad 2,491 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I mean, I can appreciate the fact that it's a very good representation of the philosophy behind the album. But visually it just rubs me the wrong way . It works a lot better without the intrusive/distorted font: But I suppose that the intrusive and somewhat messy nature of the font was all intended by Gaga, so I can't really argue with that. As I said, it fits the philosophy of the album and I respect that creative decision. It's just a little insettling for someone like me who likes visuals to be a bit more clean, structured and polished . If she could have used this version and made the gazing ball reflective, it would have been more iconic. While Koons is a very talented artist, he is also very cluttered when it comes to his art. ɪ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ᴋɴᴏᴡ ʟᴏᴠᴇ / ɪ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ᴋɴᴏᴡ ᴡʜᴀᴛ ɪᴛ ꜰᴇᴇʟꜱ ʟɪᴋᴇ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robinladen 1,539 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 as much as i love this photo... it doesn't have any sort of link to the theme of 'ARTPOP' besides possible being a reference to auraI do agree that the messy cover represents ARTPOP better than this subtle photograph. But even a simple photo like this could be interpreted in a million ways. It always reminded me a bit of an old greek head statue for some reason. The photo also gives me the vibe that something is about to happen. Like she's ready for things to be thrown at her with the mask. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy McQueen 4,484 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Jeff Koons agrees. Iconic! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jjang 2,262 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 As Didy already stated, It's a lazy attempt. It fails to provoke or at least leave an impression like her previous album covers did. But then again, almost everything in the ARTPOP era was poorly executed and the album cover is not an exception. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad Bromance 5,809 Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I love how colorful the album cover was compared to the dark covers of the The Fame, The Fame Monster, and Born This Way. It was very nice to see something colorful and pretty! I don't care what you think about unless it is about me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epione 10,896 Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Yo ARTPOP. I'm really happy for you. I'mma let you finish, but The Fame Monster had one of the best cover of all time. One of the best covers of all time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
