shame 25,360 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 So I was at the AGO (Art Gallery of Ontario) yesterday celebrating at this Pride event. While touring the gallery, I came across this spectacular exhibit: looks familiar? IT'S ALLY THE MULTI-TALENTED SMALL-TOWN CLUB PERFORMER/ASPIRING SINGER 100% proof that Gaga's face is a work of art From my research, Helga Matura (1966) is a photo-painting by Gerhard Richter who used streaking and blurring techniques in his works to present a realistic depiction of memory and "our elusive hold on reality". (just like Gaga's outfits and career ) According to Google Arts & Culture, "Helga Matura, prettily posed here on a grassy bank, was a Frankfurt prostitute who made newspaper headlines in 1966, when she was brutally murdered". Source: https://artsandculture.google.com/asset/helga-matura/OwFWaF8o8GO3Og So what does this mean? Is this a good omen that ASIB will do well? That it will be regarded as fine art? Was Ally's look inspired by this painting or did Mr. Richter prophesy this iconic moment in Gaga's career? angels forever, forever angels Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supersonic 49,376 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Also, this is a Gerhard Richter, it is actually worth millions. He's the best paid artist alive and his paintings and photographs usually retail for around 30 to 48 MILLION Dollahs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m definitely not gonna resell it and make an astronomical profit or anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He actually hates how expensive his paintings have become and how people in the art world are like in total mania about him, so nowadays he just gifts his paintings directly to museums of his liking or friends. My degree in art history finally paying off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
