First of all, China is no longer a pure Communist state. To experience why, visit China now please. People in that country has far more rights than before, if not almost on par with the U.S. with all its propaganda.

Politics and art should not mix, if that is what you are referring to.

If so, you should not mix those two either.

@georgewu5 ...NO RIGHT ANGLE CONNECTIONS FOR ALL THE FLEXIBLE PLUMBING INSTALLATION. WRIGHT PROVIDED REFLECTING POOLS FOR FIRE EMERGENCY DURING AN EARTHQUAKE.WRIGHT WAS A GENIUS WHO DID NOT OVERLOOK THE EARTHQUAKE, ACCORDING TO MY RESEARCH,THAT COULD BE AS POWERFUL AS 100,000 TONS OF FORCE. OR EUILVALENT TO THE ATOMIC BOMB THAT WAS DROPPED IN HIROSHIMA! WHAT MADE KOOLHAAS MORE INTELLIGENT THAN WRIGHT, THE GENIUS?! I DO NOT KNOW. GEORGE WU, A.I.A. 2010-7-2

@georgewu5 THE SUCCESS OF WITHSTANDING THE EARTHQUAKE IN TOKYO, 1923, OF IMPERIAL HOTEL BY WRIGHT DID NOT COME FROM "DEFYING CONVENTIONAL NORM"! WRIGHT DID MANY THINKING FOR THE THREE STOREY BUILDING. FIRST HE USED A SYMMETRICAL CHINESE DESIGN.THEN DESIGN THE ENTIRE BUILDING LIKE A REINFORCED CONCRETE BATHTUB WITH BARS TURNED UP TO THE SECOND FLOOR. MIND YOU, HE ONLY HAD A THREE STOREY BUILDING,NOT A 40 STOREY HIGH RISE LIKE CCTV! HE PROVIDE EXPANSION JOINTS EVERY 30 FEET....DANCEWU NET

@Mazmatickz "DEFYING CONVENTIONAL NORM" BY HAVING AN OFF CENTER PENDULUM OF GREAT MASS ON TWO SLANTED LEGS NOT SYMMETRICALLY LAYOUT , DOES SWING BACK BUT NOT NECESSARY FORTH IN AN EARTHQUAKE! "I-CHING" SAID THAT WORK WITH MOTHER NATURE; NOT AGAINST IT.YOU COULD KEEP YOUR"DEFYING CONVENTIONAL ARCHITECTURAL NORM" AND I WOULD RATHER TAKE MY 800 BILLION DOLLARS TO AN ARCHITECT WHO KNOWS THE POWER OF AN EARTHQUAKE AND DESIGN CCTV! THAT IS COMMON SENSE! GEORGW WU, AIA 2010-7-2
