Title A name given to the resource Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource 丹下健三 (Tange Kenzō) Type The nature or genre of the resource Architecture Subject The topic of the resource 広島平和記念公園 (Hiroshima Heiwa Kinen Kō-en) Description An account of the resource Out of the multiple design proposals for Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, it was Kenzō Tange's design that is chosen in the end. Tange's architecture plans is a mixture of modernist design and Japanese tradition. For example, the cenotaph in front of the exhibition hall is based on prehistoric Japanese "haniwa" ceramics. This turn towards traditions is a continuation of the wartime "tradition debate" in Japanese architecture, where architects debate on ways to implement traditional Japanese architectural characteristics in modern buildings as a celebration of Japanese imperialism. By the postwar period, architects began to look toward the more distant prehistoric past of Japan for inspiration as a justification of implementing Japanese conventions without the imperialistic implications.
