Seeka 12,372 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Basically "I'm the piece of art on display, and now all the art is made in my image." Or "Art imitates life, life imitates art" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venus Rose 5,638 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 Kunst means art in German, and she does have a history of German (even if its fake) in her music. Its a double meaning. also, Jeff Koons is an artist who collaborated with her for the ARTPOP visuals. I think she's saying that "one second she's the art, then suddenly the art is her". ARTPOP was all about that, anyways.  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
derpmonster 22,412 Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 She's namedropping Koons because he made a sculpture for her. Pretty sure originally it was "One second I'm a kunst, then suddenly the kunst is me". I think she even says "one second I'm a Koons, then suddenly the kunst is me" in the final version. It means art in German. The idea is that she's an artist but she's also the art itself. ARTPOP set out conceptually to blur the line between art and artist because her entire personality in general but specifically in that era is like a huge performance art piece. It's a Marina Abromaviç like idea in that there's no boundaries between the recipient of the art and between her as the artist. Check out iTunes data & graphs at CHARTPOP.live Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
