T3ARS 4,132 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 It's so beautiful I love it! It is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences. - Audre Lorde Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geopang 4,831 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 See I think it's so curious because everyone is saying THIS IS ART... Well, what is so artistic about it ? The Pierrot reference ? The paintish makeup ? The signature at the bottom ? The frame surrounding the image ? I mean, those are all classical artistic stereotypes. I truly feel like they're trying way too hard to make it LOOK artistic instead of it BEING artistic. To me, the cover or BTW was truly artistic. It respected no artistic criteria. It was a piece of art by itself, without any artistic references. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmac 0 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 She really doesn't look like a clown to me. It looks more like she was beat up by "fame" or something like that. She looks scared and vulnerable not very clown like at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kupo 201 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 !!! She's becoming much more accessible.  I sort of feel like the opposite. Don't get me wrong. I've been head over heels in love with everything we've seen from ARTPOP so far (visually, at least. still skeptical of some of the early, early lyrics she shared with us). But this all strikes me as very, very highbrow and lofty in aim, whereas BTW was deceptively deep, but had a totally kitsch surface that really gave more casual fans plenty of places to hop aboard.

Coldplay 217 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 The colour smudges are beautiful and I LOVE the title placement. Not sure about the commercial aspect of this picture, though. I guess the commercial aspect overall will be the music. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like the sounds (Which the GP cares about) are going to be MUCH, MUCH radio friendly/accessible but the lyrics/themes will be even RISKIER than Born this Way's Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a piece of art by itself, without any artistic references. Â Well, given what Gaga has revealed thus far about ARTPOP and its aims, it would make sense to create an image that plays up artistic archetypes and tries to look self-consciously artsy. If this is a reverse of Warhol and the pop art movement, where images of mass production were treated as art and as legitimate subjects worthy of artistic depiction, the same might be going on here in reverse: an attempt to take well-worn and very recognizably "artistic," "high brow" concepts and recontextualize them in the arena of pop culture and mass consumption.

justbrian 98 Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 It's not fake! I feel like the sounds (Which the GP cares about) are going to be MUCH, MUCH radio friendly/accessible but the lyrics/themes will be even RISKIER than Born this Way's agreed. I think it's going to be a case of 'a spoonful of sugar (or pop) helps the medicine (art) go down'. www.brianhowarddesign.com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
