So this is what Lady Gaga meant by Artpop: Up above is the cover for the singer’s upcoming third studio album. Created by Jeff Koons, it’s a modern take on Sandro Botticelli’s painting The Birth of Venus, complete with naked Lady Gaga giving birth to a giant blue orb.

Artpop arrives November 11th. Watch the video for “Applause” below.
