In some sense, Impressionism can be viewed as a more feminine representation, while Expressionism is fueled with a little more testosterone, more masculinity.

The anti-cynic, Post-Modern Romantic?В A few hours in the presence of a room full of вЂњWater liliesвЂќ come alive. Where were, where are, the Expressionists of вЂњjoie de vivreвЂќ? Of finding joy inВ community,В in humanity,В in romance & sensuality,В in love, sex and lush beauty? Is Adam Lambert leading, вЂњun nouveau romantiqueвЂќ era, reveling in the pleasures and expressing the personal tragedies of life and sharing them with us for a couple of hours, sharing his dreams. Van Gogh following Monet, then the two-dimensional abstraction as some messages become more political statement than emotional expression. The world has debated long and hard over which has more вЂњvalidityвЂќ as art, esthetic Impressionists, interested in studying light and colour or the born-of-war, emotional pain, politics & struggle вЂ“ Expressionists. Just as MonetвЂ™s hypnotic gardens invite us in to enjoy the fragrance of theВ flowers and herbs, the warming rays of sunshine, to recline and feel the rays and the soft petals, crush the herbs to release their healing elixirs. It isВ beautiful and seductive Impressionism. Visually, AdamвЂ™s world is organic, earthy andВ misty. Would you want to look at PicassoвЂ™s Guernica all day? This isnвЂ™t Jackson PollockвЂ™s visceral, unfiltered emotions dripped through his fingers in abstract form. Either predicting Apocalypse or weвЂ™re viewing a post-Apocalyptic world where human frailty couldnвЂ™t protect us вЂ“ any religious faith was wasted. GagaвЂ™s art is sharp-edged, high contrast, blindingly bright, pointed and вЂњPolitical ExpressionismвЂќ. Now my warm spell has been slashed open with a sharp blast of frigid air and I am scurrying for a warm fur to pull around my shoulders. I donвЂ™t have the desire to run up for a hug and kiss. While the male bodies may be вЂњeye candyвЂќ if you see past the Moe wigs, theyвЂ™re identical, bloodless, zombie robots who donвЂ™t see, donвЂ™t feel. I know we should not expect to be skipping through meadows making daisy chains 24/7, but just how many times can you watch вЂњAlejandro?вЂќ I did not hit вЂњrepeatвЂќ, except for the music, love the song. This is so much tiring work to sort through and itвЂ™s not uplifting, itвЂ™s depressing. High contrast, startling, violent scenarios. I know I would rather live in AdamвЂ™s velvet-lined, sparkly, witty, warm and sexy mind than GagaвЂ™s edgy, dark and cynical visions. IвЂ™ve been watching videos of AdamвЂ™s concert performances and snippets of his video for вЂњIf I Had YouвЂќ, wrapped in warm mist, hazy atmosphere with flashes of light to illuminate some passages. Xena to Juneau вЂ“ how could you do this to me? IвЂ™m blathering because I donвЂ™t quite know what to feel.

Gaga appropriates a bunch of cultural tropes and repackages them with such chutzpah, you gotta love it. Beautiful men goose-stepping in SS-like uniforms! Muscular lads, bare-chested wearing tight boxer briefs, boots and sporting jet-black hair in bowl cuts, both menacing and ridiculous (Mo from Three Stooges?)! And Gaga in a blood-red nunвЂ™s habit! Gaga practically naked with a red cruciform over her pubis! Gaga sprouting machine gun barrels from her breasts!! Men in stilettos! Bondage! Intimations of gang rape! Upon first viewing, it doesnвЂ™t seem as layered as the Telephone video. In this one, she taps into her Catholic schoolgirl kink meets Latin fascist machismo. IвЂ™m an enthusiast for her perverse blend of pop ear-candy and camp, edgy visuals. Lady GagaвЂ™s music video for Alejandro was released yesterday, and has already racked up close to 4 million views. Tweeted by Alejandro! Thanks for the mancandy Gaga! рџ™‚ beautifully shot video! By Juneau co-author of On the Meaning of Adam Lambert
