Experiments in Art and Technology ... Experiments in Art and Technology (E.A.T.), a non-profit and tax-exempt organization, was established in 1967 to develop ...
Expo '70
On the heels of <anchor>Expo '70</anchor>, E.A.T released a call for proposals for "realizable projects in the environment" that considered the "utilization of existing technology and available scientific knowledge, recognition of the scale required to make the project effective under existing social and environmental conditions, ecological effects and organizational methods necessary for execution."[25] Four projects were selected for production, namely City Agriculture, Children and Communication, Esthetic Symposium, and Recreation and Play.[26] While E.A.T. worked on organizing all four events, budget shortfalls and other logistical issues resulted in only one project being realized.[27] This was the Children and Communication project, which involved setting up a telex network for children to communicate between two remote sites, namely Automation House on East 68th Street and the E.A.T. Loft (another workspace at the time) at 9 East 16th Street.[28][29] Begun on December 18, 1970, the project ran until April 8, 1971, during which time many school groups visited in addition to the general public. The two sites were connected by a number of technologies, including ten telephones, two teleprinters, two fax machines, and two telewriters, each of which facilitated a slightly different form of communication. Children were invited to explore these different means of instantaneous visual and textual interaction freely as the project specifically denied any explicit pedagogical goals. Instead, it served more as a training ground for the sensory environment of the information age.[29]

The **Japan World Exposition, Osaka, 1970** (日本万国博覧会, _Nihon Bankoku Hakuran-kai_) or **Expo 70** was a [world's fair](/wiki/World%27s_fair "World's fair") held in [Suita](/wiki/Suita "Suita"), [Osaka Prefecture](/wiki/Osaka_Prefecture "Osaka Prefecture"), Japan between March 15 and September 13, 1970. Its theme was "Progress and Harmony for Mankind." In Japanese, Expo '70 is often referred to as _Ōsaka Banpaku_ (大阪万博). It was the first world's fair held in Japan and in Asia.

The Expo was designed by Japanese architect [Kenzō Tange](/wiki/Kenz%C5%8D_Tange "Kenzō Tange"), assisted by 12 other Japanese architects. Bridging the site along a north–south axis was the Symbol Zone. Planned on three levels, it was primarily a social space with a unifying [space frame](/wiki/Space_frame "Space frame") roof.

The Expo attracted international attention for the extent to which unusual artworks and designs by Japanese avant-garde artists were incorporated into the overall plan and individual national and corporate pavilions.[\[1\]](#cite_note-1) The most famous of these artworks is artist [Tarō Okamoto](/wiki/Tar%C5%8D_Okamoto "Tarō Okamoto")'s iconic [Tower of the Sun](/wiki/Tower_of_the_Sun "Tower of the Sun"), which still remains on the site today.

## Background

Osaka was chosen as the site for the 1970 World Exposition by the [Bureau International des Expositions](/wiki/Bureau_International_des_Expositions "Bureau International des Expositions") (BIE) in 1965. 330 hectares in the Senri Hills outside Osaka had been earmarked for the site and a Theme Committee under the chairmanship of Seiji Kaya was formed. Kenzo Tange and [Uzo Nishiyama](/wiki/Uz%C5%8D_Nishiyama "Uzō Nishiyama") were appointed to produce the master plan for the Expo. The main theme would be _Progress and Harmony for Mankind_. Tange invited 12 other architects to elucidate designs for elements within the master plan. These architects included: [Arata Isozaki](/wiki/Arata_Isozaki "Arata Isozaki") for the _Festival Plaza_ mechanical, electrical and electronic installations; and [Kiyonori Kikutake](/wiki/Kiyonori_Kikutake "Kiyonori Kikutake") for the Landmark Tower.[\[2\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKultermann1970282-2)

## Master plan

\[ [edit](/w/index.php?title=Expo_%2770&action=edit&section=2 "Edit section: Master plan")\]

Two main principles informed the master plan. The first was the idea that the wisdom of all the peoples of the world would come together in this place and stimulate ideas; the second was that it would be less of an _exposition_ and more of a _festival_. The designers thought that unlike previous expositions they wished to produce a central, unifying, Festival Plaza where people could meet and socialise. They called this the _Symbol Zone_ and covered it and the themed pavilions with a giant space frame roof.[\[3\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKultermann1970284-3)

The designers liked the idea that like the [1851 Great Exhibition in London](/wiki/Great_Exhibition "Great Exhibition"), the roof of the Symbol Zone could be a unifying entity for the expo. They did not want the constraint imposed by the London Exhibition of having everything contained under one roof, so the space frame contained only the Festival Plaza and themed pavilions. Tange compared the concept to a tree. The idea was that although the national pavilions were like individual flowers they needed to be connected to the whole via branches and a trunk. Thus the Symbol Zone became the trunk and the moving pedestrian walkways and sub-plazas became the branches. These elements were reinforced with colour, with the trunk and branches in plain white and the pavilions in their own colours that were determined by the national architects.[\[4\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKultermann1970286-4)

The Symbol Zone ran north–south across the site, spanning an arterial road running east–west. The Festival Plaza was to the north of road and had the main gate on its southern end. To the north of the main gate and central to the Festival Plaza was the [Tower of the Sun](/wiki/Tower_of_the_Sun "Tower of the Sun") from which visitors could join pedestrian walkways that travelled out towards the north, south, east and west gates.[\[5\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKultermann1970288-5)

The Theme Space under the space frame was divided into three levels, each designed by the artist [Tarō Okamoto](/wiki/Tar%C5%8D_Okamoto "Tarō Okamoto"), The underground level represented the past and was a symbol of the source of humanity. The surface level represented the present, symbolising the dynamism of human interaction. The space frame represented the future and a world where humanity and technology would be joined. Tange envisioned that the exhibition for the future would be like an aerial city and he asked [Fumihiko Maki](/wiki/Fumihiko_Maki "Fumihiko Maki"), Noboru Kawazoe, Koji Kamiya and Noriaki Kurokawa to design it. The Theme Space was also punctuated by three towers: the Tower of the Sun, the Tower of Maternity and the Tower of Youth.[\[6\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKultermann1970289-6)

To the north of the Theme Space was the Festival Plaza. This was a flexible space that contained a flat area and stepped terrace. The plaza could be rearranged to provide for different requirements for seating capacity, from 1500 to 10000. The flexibility extended to the lighting and audio visual equipment allowing for a range of musical performances and electronic presentations.[\[7\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKultermann1970289–293-7) Festival Plaza was covered by the world's first large-scale, transparent membrane roof. It was designed by Tange and structural engineer Yoshikatsu Tsuboi + Kawaguchi & Engineers. Measuring 75.6 m in width and 108 m in length, it was 30 m high and supported by only six lattice columns.[\[8\]](#cite_note-PlazaRoof-8)

Seventy-seven countries participated in the event, and within six months the number of visitors reached 64,218,770, making Expo '70 one of the largest and best attended expositions in history.[\[9\]](#cite_note-gwr-9) It held the record for most visitors at an Expo until it was surpassed by the [Shanghai World Expo](/wiki/Shanghai_World_Expo "Shanghai World Expo") in 2010.[\[10\]](#cite_note-10) It generated a profit of 19 billion Yen.[\[9\]](#cite_note-gwr-9)

## Major pavilions

- The Canadian pavilion, designed by architect [Arthur Erickson](/wiki/Arthur_Erickson "Arthur Erickson"), featured two [National Film Board of Canada](/wiki/National_Film_Board_of_Canada "National Film Board of Canada") productions: _The Land_, a look at Canada from coast to coast, filmed for the most part from a low-flying aircraft,[\[11\]](#cite_note-nfb-11) as well as the [animated short](/wiki/Animated_short "Animated short") _The City_, directed by [Kaj Pindal](/wiki/Kaj_Pindal "Kaj Pindal").[\[12\]](#cite_note-kaj-12)[\[13\]](#cite_note-Weldon-13) Montreal artist and architect [Melvin Charney](/wiki/Melvin_Charney "Melvin Charney") had submitted a radically different design for the Canadian pavilion, fashioned from construction cranes and scaffolding, which was rejected.[\[14\]](#cite_note-Curran-14)

- The West German pavilion, designed by [Fritz Bornemann](/wiki/Fritz_Bornemann "Fritz Bornemann"), featured the world's first spherical concert hall, based on artistic concepts by [Karlheinz Stockhausen](/wiki/Karlheinz_Stockhausen "Karlheinz Stockhausen"). The pavilion theme was "gardens of music", in keeping with which Bornemann "planted" the exhibition halls beneath a broad lawn, with the connected auditorium "sprouting" above ground. Inside, the audience was surrounded by 50 loudspeaker groups in seven rings at different "latitudes" around the interior walls of the sphere. Sound was sent around the space in three dimensions using either a spherical controller designed by Fritz Winckel of the Electronic Music Studio at [Technische Universität Berlin](/wiki/Technische_Universit%C3%A4t_Berlin "Technische Universität Berlin"), or a ten-channel "rotation mill" constructed to Stockhausen's design.[\[15\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFöllmern.d.-15)[\[16\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFöllmer1996-16)[\[17\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKurtz1992166-17) Works by [Johann Sebastian Bach](/wiki/Johann_Sebastian_Bach "Johann Sebastian Bach"), [Ludwig van Beethoven](/wiki/Ludwig_van_Beethoven "Ludwig van Beethoven"), [Bernd Alois Zimmermann](/wiki/Bernd_Alois_Zimmermann "Bernd Alois Zimmermann"), and [Boris Blacher](/wiki/Boris_Blacher "Boris Blacher") were played from multi-track tape. As the main feature, however, Stockhausen was invited to present five-and-a-half-hour live programs of his music every day over a period of 183 days to a total audience of about a million listeners.[\[18\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKurtz1992178-18)[\[19\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEWörner1973256-19) In the course of the exhibition, 19 performers in Stockhausen's ensemble gave concerts for over a million visitors.[\[15\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEFöllmern.d.-15) "Many visitors felt the spherical auditorium to be an oasis of calm amidst the general hubbub, and after a while it became one of the main attractions of Expo 1970".[\[20\]](#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKurtz1992179-20)
- The USSR pavilion was the tallest in the fairgrounds, a sweeping red and white design by Soviet architect Mikhail V. Posokhin.[\[21\]](#cite_note-21)
- The U.S. pavilion was an air-supported dome, a joint design by architects [Davis Brody](/wiki/Davis_Brody_Bond "Davis Brody Bond") and structural engineer [David H. Geiger](/wiki/David_H._Geiger "David H. Geiger")[\[22\]](#cite_note-22)
- The Netherlands pavilion was the work of Carel Weeber and [Jaap Bakema](/wiki/Jaap_Bakema "Jaap Bakema").[\[23\]](#cite_note-23)
- The Hong Kong pavilion, topped by sails that were raised and lowered twice daily, was designed by Alan Fitch, W. Szebo & Partners.[\[24\]](#cite_note-24)
- The Philippine Pavilion was designed by renowned Filipino Architect [Leandro Locsin](/wiki/Leandro_Locsin "Leandro Locsin") and was very well received and was judged as one of the ten most popular pavilions at the exhibition with its dramatic roof sweeping up from the ground using fine Philippine hardwoods and other native materials.[\[25\]](#cite_note-25)

A popular highlight of the fair was a large [Moon rock](/wiki/Moon_rock "Moon rock") on display in the United States' pavilion. It had been brought back from the Moon by [Apollo 12](/wiki/Apollo_12 "Apollo 12") astronauts in 1969.[\[26\]](#cite_note-26)

Expo '70 also saw the premiere of the first-ever [IMAX](/wiki/IMAX "IMAX") film: the [Canadian](/wiki/Canada "Canada")-produced _[Tiger Child](/wiki/Tiger_Child "Tiger Child")_ for the [Fuji Group](/wiki/Fuyo_Group "Fuyo Group") pavilion.[\[27\]](#cite_note-27)

### Today

\[ [edit](/w/index.php?title=Expo_%2770&action=edit&section=6 "Edit section: Today")\]

The site of Expo '70 is now [Expo Commemoration Park](/wiki/Expo_Commemoration_Park "Expo Commemoration Park"). Almost all pavilions have been demolished, but a few memorials remain, including part of the roof for Festival Plaza designed by Tange. The most famous of the still-intact pieces is the Tower of the Sun. The former international art museum pavilion designed by Kiyoshi Kawasaki was used as the building for the [National Museum of Art, Osaka](/wiki/National_Museum_of_Art,_Osaka "National Museum of Art, Osaka") until March 2004 (the museum moved to downtown Osaka in November 2004).\[ _[citation needed](/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed "Wikipedia:Citation needed")_\]

Additionally, there is a [time capsule](/wiki/Time_capsule "Time capsule") that is to be left for 5,000 years and opened in the year 6970.[\[29\]](#cite_note-29) The capsule was donated by [The Mainichi Newspapers Co.](/wiki/Mainichi_Shimbun "Mainichi Shimbun") and the [Matsushita Electric Industrial Co.](/wiki/Panasonic "Panasonic") The concept creating time capsules at world's fairs started with the two [Westinghouse Time Capsules](/wiki/Westinghouse_Time_Capsules "Westinghouse Time Capsules"), which are to be opened in 6939.\[ _[citation needed](/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed "Wikipedia:Citation needed")_\]
