There seems to be a lot of interest in this thread in finding original 'ideas' in art. But it's not the idea, it's the work. There is no real difficulty to resolve as far as the plagiarism thing goes. If somebody steals something, they steal it. That's the end of it. But what they make, if they steal it correctly, is just as good as mine. If they steal it correctly in its entirety or lift it in its entirety, the reproduction again is as good as the 'original'.
