oh! funny to c Louise Bourgeois work with the bridge as background. her work is amazing, and she's always working and i guess she's more than 80yo now, right? love her works, and these spiders that she's "leaving" everywhere. we have here in spain also, in the Guggenheim Museum (Bilbao), it's marvellous!

It is so funny, i keep seeing pictures of this spider and i thought it was some sort of photoshop program like "add a giant spider to your landscape" sort of thing until i saw this in person!
and Gon, thanks for the information on her..that is what i love most about flickr, there is such a wealth of information about most anything.

Darwin, just went to wikipedia to make sure:
"Louise Bourgeois (born in Paris, December 25,1911) is an artist and sculptor. She is best known for her 'Cells', 'Spiders' and various drawings, books and sculptures. In 1938 she moved with her American husband to New York City, where she still lives."
there's more interesting info there: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louise_Bourgeois
i don't know how's it now, but last year, a friend of mine worked at her studio for 6 months, and she was allways there working. as person, i always heard the best, so great person as she is great artist. i love her works.

Gon, thank you so much for that information...it is amazing that she is still going and making such amazing art!! Truly an inspiration. And she is also still causing a commotion because this piece is very controversial...even though San Francisco is a very liberal town at heart; it has very conservative tastes in art and until recently, architecture. This piece has gotten a lot of negative feedback, but I love it.

Most people's photos of these spiders take in the whole piece - but yours does not - so it makes it seem larger and more ominous - and the angle adds to that sense of terror. Nice work. By the way - if you want to see an interesting photo of Ms. Bourgeois - just do a google image search of Mapplethorpe and Bourgeois.
Your sculpture is a masterpiece!

"Maman" (Mother) by Louise Bourgeois, her recurrent obsession. There's a big sculpture of the same kind of creepy spider at Tokyo's Roppongi Hills. There's also a flickr group called Maman which is dedicated to this artist and sculptures. You should post this pic there.

I like your point of view very much, taking this picture of a spider with a "normal" background which makes it appear even more eerie! and the angle is nice scary!
