Loving the meltdowns this cover is causing! Some of her stans can't handle it.

Queen Gaga! 

 

This writers' references are interesting. There is no right or wrong when deciphering the meaning of an artwork. I like how he's interpreting the cover from Jeff Koons' perspective. Really interesting.

Your credentials don't matter if you guess about the meaning of an artwork and its references.

 

With all his credentials, he doesn't even seem to notice that there's another sculpture in the black-and-white part :rip:

 

OMG Do you understand irony? :dead:

Well.. He's talking about Koons, not about Gaga :ohwell:

 

It's a start, and like I said that's along with the other positive reactions to the cover by professional critics.

 

I could be wrong but I think Koons mainly designed the statue and not the whole cover, so he's actually praising/a--lyzing her ideas without knowing it.

What you're calling "guessing" is called interpretation, and you don't have to wait for an artist to explain their art before you interpret it.

I can't with all the "I'm so happy" replies. His a--lysis doesn't make sense. Did you even read it?

When it comes to a--lysing art - there is no right or wrong answer bb. 

 

His review makes perfect sense to me. He's looked at the artwork, considered who has actually made it, and has found things/other works that may or may not have been intentionally referenced by Koons.

Am I? :ohwell: I really didn't notice. You're the one who keeps making these ridiculous comments. If you prefer to just believe whatever a man "with credentials" has to say, go ahead.

 

:lmao: You're embarrassing yourself

 

Obviously there is no right or wrong, but be honest, nobody cares about that in this thread. The majority probably didn't even bother to look up the references that he made. The Warhol and Emin references are a joke.

Are you even going to try to make a reply that makes sense ? More than "you're embarrassing + smiley" for example.

Not when your first reply was "Art critics...." + a Shaniqua pic :deadbanana:
Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn

If no-one cares about there being no right or wrong, I suggest they stop replying. 

 

The Warhol reference is obvious when you look at the cover bb.

I've added some other replies babeh. This (those) member(s) is blind + deaf, there is no point discussing in here with people like that because they don't even reply to other posts properly, there is no debate except "copy/paste wikipedia page + *empty*"

What a legend :worship2: :legend:

 

The thing about "art" is that it's not supposed to be for everybody, it's only for a certain elite that has studied it, have cultivated their taste and understands about it. To me that bs, but then again I don't know anything about art! I'm supposed this art critic dude does, but whatever.

 

I like the cover because I think is pretty :flutter:  some don't like it because they think it's not. And that's okay.
