School of Seven Bells, Active Child, Shigeto


Thu., Sept. 9, 6 p.m.

Though Active Child may be heading into tonight's show with the most buzz for his disjointed, electro-based avant-pop, we're much more excited to hear songs from Disconnect From Desire, the largely overlooked new album from local band School of Seven Bells. They way Claudia and Alejandra Deheza (twin sisters, it's too perfect) melt saccharine harmonies and pop hooks into dense walls of noise is quite mesmerizing. SOLD OUT

Grass Grows by Itself


Mondays-Fridays. Continues through Sept. 9

We’ll gladly attest to the truth of the Zen proverb that lends this exhibition its title, namely that the most original and productive ideas often bloom from a state of total entropy. Curator Sima Familant’s creative intergenerational pairings attest as much, from Dale Chihuly’s floral blow glass and Chakaia Booker’s grass-like strips of tire rubber, to Kianja Strobert’s melancholic abstract paintings and Cameron Martin’s barely-there white-on-white canvases.

Cody Critcheloe and Ssion: Boy


Tuesdays-Saturdays. Continues through Sept. 11

This will be good: the queer kid from Kansas, also frontman and music video creator for Ssion, already designed the superb installation for The Hole's inaugural show, but with the entire space there's no telling how crazily kaleidoscopic things will get. Critcheloe's aesthetic, to give you an idea, is like Roy Lichtenstein painting M.I.A. album covers. Now will you go see this multimedia extravaganza?
