200 Eastern Parkway (718-638-5000)—“The Eye of the Artist: The Work
of Devorah Sperber.” Sperber arranges tens of thousands of spools
of thread or colored crystals like pixels to make her installations; the
seemingly abstract fields of color resolve into straightforward copies
of famous paintings only when viewed through an inverting optical lens.
Through May 6. (Open Wednesdays through Fridays, 10 to 5, and Saturdays
and Sundays, 11 to 6.)
