The Museum of Plagiarism...The Plagiarism Museum

By way of the smart fellers over at Industrial Brand Creative, we were pointed to a full feature story in Business Week concerning something we’d heard about, just hadn’t read a ton of info on: The Museum Plagiarius, just outside of Cologne, Germany. You don’t have to understand Latin (though ‘plagiarius’ means ‘kidnapped in Latin anyway, so it might not help to go the verbatim route) to get what the museum is about. It’s a beautiful structure filled to the brim with objects that look dang similar to the real thing, but are completely fake.
