As for its style - it's art nouveau in a way (but mostly black and white). As for her, I personally have nothing against, AFAIK Karajan quite liked her too This one is also quite art nouveau.. Two next ones - not that much.. Link to comment

I had guessed what your next post would be about before you even knew it yourself. Ha!

sphinxsix Posted May 10, 2020 Author Share Posted May 10, 2020 There are countless possible visual aesthetics nowadays, not each of them has to be to everyone's liking. When posters advertising this album appeared on the London Underground, many of them were defaced by graffiti artists with slogans like "This Offends Women" and "This is Sexist" or "This is Demeaning". Is it? IMO it's debatable. The woman on the photo is Ksenia Sobchak - the daughter of the first democratically elected mayor of Saint Petersburg, Anatoly Sobchak (he had been both Vladimir Putin's and Dmitry Medvedev's law professor at Leningrad University), and the Russian senator Lyudmila Narusova. Ksenia Sobchak was the Civic Initiative's candidate for the 2018 Russian presidential election, the youngest Russian presidential candidate ever. The iconic 'Ritual' cover photo of a diorama made by lead singer Perry Farrell, depicting him in the three-way affair he sings about in "Three Days." But the nudity, both male and female, made some retailers squeamish, so the band also provided a plain white cover adorned with the text of the First Amendment. Probably even more iconic cover, the photo by Robert Mapplethorpe, the shirt from the Salvation Army. Provocative or not.? Link to comment
sphinxsix Posted May 10, 2020 Author Share Posted May 10, 2020 Just a reminder - this thread is supposed to be about provocative, controversial covers, not necessarily about personal taste (which of course can also be discussed here ). Link to comment

My default take on "sexually provocative", without further qualification such as the one you just rendered, would be "provokes a sexually-related emotional reaction/response". So, for me, this Album Cover would be bang on beam. But you want "controversial" rather than "sexually interesting in the most generic possible of ways"? You're the man and the boss! Nothing like a bit of controversy! Link to comment

Your take has got the OP's blessing! 10 minutes ago, Iving said: But you want "controversial" rather than "sexually interesting in the most generic possible of ways"? There is no problem with none of these. In general I'd suggest non-problematical attitude 12 minutes ago, Iving said: Everybody.. I hope so It's all about some fun after all although I personally don't mind it getting a little more serious from time to time Link to comment
