Originally posted by Tanguy I agree. But the BTW Ball in an arena > BTW Ball in a stadium where you can barely see anything

Speaking of avis:
Should I keep this one:


Or change it again with this long-term avi of mine?

Time for some art history.





Figure 1: Francisco Goya, Saturn Devouring His Son. Oil mural transferred to canvas; 1819-1833.
Figure 2: Lady Gaga, Untitled. Unknown medium; 2014.

Francisco Goya’s piece Saturn Devouring His Son (Figure 1) depicts a scene where, fearing one of his offspring would grow up to overthrow him, the mythological Roman god Saturn devours one of his sons. The ******* eyes of Saturn indicate an insanity and ferocity that mirror the grotesque action that he performs, eyes the can also be seen in Gaga’s piece in Figure 2. Saturn is also literally falling apart at the seams - his skin is warped, and parts of his body seem to detach in places they normally would not. (This technically could be nothing more than the effects of painting with a brush, but, given the subject matter, it’s much more likely that these effects were intentional.) This can also be seen, even more so actually, in Gaga’s piece, where the make up of the body of the “little baby demon pet” as she called it seems to defy explanation - is it skin, is it feathers, or is it perhaps a monstrous melding of the two? The viewer is left with these questions due to the beastly make up of the creature’s body. In addition to the parallels between the actual works themselves, there is also some faint similarity between the back stories of each piece. Just as Gaga was, as she later admitted, undergoing much mental and emotional turmoil during the time period in which her piece was made, so too was Goya, who suffered mentally from the effects of a physical illness along with the turmoil occurring in his country, when his was made.

Originally posted by OreGuy It still making me laugh whenever I remember Gaga handing out that painting to Tony, I don't know why I love reading those TheNight

Originally posted by TheNight That painting, as I mentioned, was her visual representation of all her internal pain from around the time it was created, and since Tony was arguably the defining reason for her finding her drive and hope again, it makes perfect sense for her to give it to him, as a physical way of showing him that he figuratively took away her pain. I know this isn't the best way to word it, but I hope it makes sense. And thank you, I really appreciate it.

Originally posted by Bang Up Speaking of tours, I just realized that most of her Asian dates during the BTW Ball managed to be some of the biggest shows the countries she played in has ever seen. Her Korean show was the second biggest, her Hong Kong show was the biggest for that venue, and her Thailand show was the biggest. She could have milked Asia for so much more. But the artRAVE >>> her other tours. Sorry.

She should've definitely milked Asia more. Hopefully she'll tour my flop country finally, after TMB.
