* SANTIAGO CALATRAVA
This survey of major building projects by the Spanish-born architect and artist chosen to design the World Trade Center PATH Terminal (which will crown a network of passageways linking commuter trains, ferries, and subways) is another coup for the Henry. Through Nov 21.
* EMMET GOWIN
Changing the Earth, Aerial Photographs is the first major touring exhibition of Gowin's work in a decade. The ominous overheads will haunt you with their missile silos and fraught landscapes. You may remember his famed photos of the devastation caused by the eruption of Mount St. Helens. Through Nov 11.

CONTINUING EXHIBITIONS
* ARTHUR "WEEGEE" FELLIG
The iconic photographs of Weegee spawned a generation of imitators. Here is the original in all his gruesome and amazing glory. Whatcom Museum, 1892 City Hall Bldg, Bellingham, 360-676-6981. Through Jan 30.
THEODOR SEUSS GEISEL
Final week. The work of Geisel, AKA Dr. Seuss, is featured in this touring exhibit. Kenneth Behm Gallery, Bellevue Square, 425-454-0222. Through Oct 25.
* VICTORIA HAVEN
Haven's delicate paper constructions are many things: ephemeral landscapes, sculptural works on paper, and two and three-dimensional free-associative architectures. This show is divided into three themes: Departure, Journey, and Destination, but with Haven the lines always blur beautifully. Howard House, 604 Second Ave, 256-6399. Through Oct 30.
* TODD KARAM
Karam's paintings are charmingly whimsical, which are two words I never use in close proximity to each other, let alone together. His bicycles and tricycles are personal favorites. ToST, 513 N 36th St, 547-0240. Through Nov 4.
CASEY MCGLYNN
The Brooklyn folk artist's paintings on wood and canvas are full of cattle, portly human figures, and birds. Garde Rail Gallery, 110 Third Ave S, 621-1055. Through Oct 30.
* MOVING DIGITAL
Final week. Video work by Seattle-based artists including Iole Alessandrini, Brad Ewing, Sean Frego, Joseph Gray, Thom Heileson, David Herbert, Jamisen Ogg, Keith Tilford, Tony Weathers, and John Wells. 1506 Projects, 1506 E Olive Way, 920-8618. Through Oct 23.
* BRIAN MURPHY
Facing is a site-specific installation of two self-portrait heads on two panels suspended from the ceiling. Suyama Space, 2324 Second Ave, 256-0809. Through Dec 10.
* SAMANTHA SCHERER
The new exhibition of drawings by Seattle artist Samantha Scherer is called Fame. Appropriately enough, she focuses in on specific body parts--eyes, mouths, hands--of celebrities and political figures. Her delicate pen-and-watercolor likenesses are isolated features floating in a white expanse, which gives some a strange sensuality and others a diffused menace. SOIL Art Gallery, 112 Third Ave S, 264-8061. Through Oct 31.
* KEVIN WILLIS, JOHN ATKINS, RYAN IVERSON, ALAN HURLEY
All four of these artists draw on pop-culture references to varying degrees for very divergent results. Lipstick Traces, 303 E Pine St, 329-2813. Through Oct 31.
