Queen Gloria 3,464 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) That huge wall of text by Haunts could have been said in three sentences, but yes I agree. Art is subjective, art is meant to evoke emotion whether it's positive or negative or curiosity. I like that she's been trying to make herself unattractive this era for the very reason that the media does expect women to be perfect. She's been a clown, she's dragged an arm like a caveman, she's worn the same plaid shirt over and over, now she's wearing a sack. It is nice that she's fighting the stereotype of women having to be perfectly made up and beautiful.

RAMROD 109,723 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 (edited) Art! Give me a break... this is absolutely horrible. Art is supposed to at be at least visually compelling. Not feeling this pic and don´t know what´s going on in her head. Whoa calm down right there, the Summer's over! You have your own liking in art that are visually compelling. And you must also respect her vision of what art is than being straight down bashful. No one thinks abstract painting art when it was just begun. No one call Picasso paintings as art when he was started. No one called Wright brothers genius when they think they can make people fly. They were labeled as mad, loonies. The way you did right now to Gaga. But look at what happened today, everything changes. Everyone got their visions, if you don't like it or not the way art does to you then you can always step back and step up when it is interesting for you again. No need to be agressive and dramatic.

Pop 4,541 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Loving the picture, everything fascinates me. It's interesting that you all don't like it, I think that's because she doesn't look attractive in it. People have a hard time dealing with stuff when it's not "beautiful" in the media-perpetuated sense of the word. When she was naked on the chair giving body with natural hair, everybody lived for it. Now, this is the exact same person, looking different and everybody's reaction is harsh as f*ck. Truthfully, this is why I love Gaga and I think that's what really sets herself from any other popstar. She's not afraid to look "ugly", to not look her best, to challange our views on beauty. I think that's the problem some monsters and the GP have with the Born This Way era, tbh. She didn't look "attractive". Remember when she schooled that interviewer recently because he was talking about her ass at the VMAs? Saying that is was funny that people were only noticing her features now that she had natural hair/make-up and minimal fashion. I think people need to deal with a different kind of fashion. Fashion doesn't need to be luxurious fabrics that cinches the waist and follow a woman's body. In my perspective, fashion (and art) is about creating a moment, an image, a story. Something that comes and grabs you in, that provokes a reaction. I like that some draw parallels with the BTW cover because that's exactly the same situation. We have a hard time accepting something we don't understand and don't find beautiful. The only problem I have with the picture are the shoes though, wedges are like flip-flops to me. But it works pretty well in creating a look that challenges our understanding of fashion and beauty but still looks put together, from head to toe. NO RULES on ARTPOP, right? So yeah, it is my favorite ARTPOP picture so far. It is SO interesting, you sense that there is a story behind, a full concept that is ready to come out. There is so much depth. The face and hair are SO strong, it looks like a cultural signature. Like she's part of a tribe of white dreaded, icy eyed creatures. And that is SO HARD to create. She already did that kind of instantly iconic/recognizable look with the BTW prosthetics and it was brilliant. She looks ready to get dirty for her art. Like a technician ready to roll on paint and jump on a canvas. I like the wires coming out of her head too, like a robot loading in informations before being ready to function. Like a canvas meeting technology. A traditional form of art collaborating with an underground movement. An artist in the process of creating, in that gazing moment of deep searching. I don't know, you could read so many things... she truly is everything. Anyway, the picture is striking, therefore it is successful. Goodbye. THIS is what Lady Gaga expects from her fans. Knowledge and awareness of contemporary art and fashion and the semiotics of the message behind it. Bravo! The Taylor Brigade: KNOCKOUT Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bryan 646 Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 My first thought was, perhaps this is her response to all the poor misguided souls who complain that she's been too naked lately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
