An iconic sculpture by the late French-born American artist Louise Bourgeois offers a hint of what’s to come in our upcoming exhibition Spiders Alive!, which opens July 28. This particularly striking bronze specimen called Spider 1 is roughly 4 feet in diameter and now on view in the Grand Gallery on the first floor.
