Is China Pavilion considering plagiarism?
The china pavilion, located in
Shanghai, became successfully earn the public’s satisfaction. The design was
chosen from 300 entries from Chinese architectures all around the world and the
award of the competition goes to the architecture that gets to show the image
of China at the extravagant fair. However, the china pavilion was accused for
plagiarism due to one of the structure in china pavilion is quite similar to
the Japanese pavilion--The Japanese architecture for the 1992 Seville Expo in
Spain, which designed by Tadao Ando. Still, the dean of China architecture
institution, JingTang refused the accusation; he insisted that he and his team have
never seen the Japan pavilion that was demolished right after 1992 fair was
over. Therefore the question is did China pavilion should be considering as
plagiarism? According to the Japanese pavilion concepts, the Japanese pavilion
was created for decorating purpose. The concept that Tadao Ando has presented
came from the traditional dougong--the buckets which dated back from the
ancient china history. The china pavilion also used the concept of the
traditional Chinese bucket-arch architectural techniques. This might be the
reason that the Japan and china pavilion design look almost similar. Moreover,
the dougong was originally come from ancient china, so it shouldn’t be counted
as a plagiarism. It makes some sense that Chinese people can also use the
concept from their ancient traditional technique. Also, in term of the size,
the color and function of china pavilion has nothing similar to Japanese
pavilion. The china pavilion used red color and concrete to represent the
signature of China. On the other hand, Japan pavilion was constructed from
timber and was used as a decorating element in the 1992 expo. In my opinion,
Japanese have no right to accused Chinese for plagiarism since Japan did not
even used their traditional concept but adopted from the traditional china
technique.
