Speaking of the originality idea of an advertisement, plagiarism might exist, but too often also, in some occassion, two different artists could coincidently come up with the pretty much same “idea” but in different set of timing.

After all, both of them were good creative of arts.

Brilliant. Except its an uncredited rip-off of a 2004 project by artist Simon Faithfull called “Escape Vehicle no.6″, sponsored by http://www.artscatalyst.org/

Confronted on the copy, Grey now claims the original artist was “on the team” and that their original idea was “making an advert of this concept”.

You can compare the videos on YouTube, or on my blog… http://jebuff.vox.com/library/post/chairs-in-space-and-ripping-off-an-idea.html
