LinkLinks Washington Post: The best part of the new Spy Museum? Its exterior. By Editor On May 8, 2019 Last updated May 8, 2019 51 Share In the lobby of the new Spy Museum at L’Enfant Plaza, a diorama depicts a raggedy looking man in a loin cloth, perched atop a tree, staring out at an aerial drone hanging from the ceiling. And there, in a nutshell, is the essence of the Spy Museum, a mix of old-fashioned entertainment like the kind that used to line the highways of America — safari parks and tacky attractions — and a slightly breathless admiration for technology and high-tech gimcrackery. The message of this confrontation between primitive man surveying the savanna and modern, eye-in-the-sky surveillance is simple: The need to see the unseen and uncover hidden threats is as old as the species.
