| |  | | |  The International Spy Museum The International Spy Museum reveals history through the lens of espionage. The exhibition Exquisitely Evil is a tribute to the iconic movie villains and their dastardly plots for world domination. Real-life and fictional villainy is presented through an overload of 007 production designs and photos, props, replicas, vehicles and costumes. There are multi-sensory and interactive displays to appeal to guests of all ages. The museum features the largest collection of international espionage artifacts ever placed on public display. | |  | |  Narwhal: Revealing an Artic Legend In Inuit culture, the narwhal is an intriguing and spiritual animal. The National Museum of Natural History's new exhibit showcases the Inuit perspective on the animal, as well as scientific information, to reveal the nature of the narwhal. The exhibit includes tusks and skulls from the animal, as well as Inuit artwork and artifacts depicting the male narwhal. Visitors can also enjoy hands-on activities and chat with experts at select times. | |  From Nature What is the value of Nature? Or rather, what values does Nature exhibit? Join the Korean Cultural Center for the opening of From Nature, a new exhibition featuring six Korean artists who explore what it means to espouse the values found in nature--form, flow, utilization of resources--In their art and life.
Each artist's work varies in material and technique as they draw connections between their unique personal style of expression and fundamental principles of the natural world. For more information on the individual artists and their work, visit the KCC website. The opening reception, with talks by the artists, is on Friday, August 4 at 6:00 pm. It is free and open to the public, but registration is required. From Nature will remain on view through August 31. | |  Markus Lüpertz One of the most important post-World War II artists in Germany, Markus Lüpertz helped shape the post-war image of his country, achieving enormous success across Europe. This is his first major museum retrospective in the United States. This exhibition at the Phillips Collection is organized in collaboration with the artist himself and explores his five-decade career, from his earliest works to the more recent paintings that are redolent with mythological subject matter and allusions. | |  Friday, August 4 Tour - In Their Footsteps, Women's Suffrage History Tour
