4. Car Seat Headrest In-Store Performance and Album Release
Already prolific in quantity, Will Toledo of Car Seat Headrest has ascended to the high quality side of things with his bandâs latest album, Teens of Denial. Surging ahead of the pack of anxiety-riddled, string-tearing indie rock, Teens of Denial actually accomplishes a goal, building a safe space in which one can be fully surrounded by and commensurate with the cares and desires of a demographic typically accused of never caring enough. Heavy on the Built to Spillâstyle slow build that crashes into persistent oblivion, Toledo strikes the middle point between career-peak Jonathan Richman and the subtle insecurity of Jeffrey Lewis, with stridently critical and clever vocalizations. You get the feeling he woke up alone in a strangerâs home and is now just making sense of his place in each room. It is simultaneously unsettling and deeply comforting. KIM SELLING

26. SuttonBeresCuller: Old, New, Borrowed & Blue
Stranger Genius Award winners SuttonBeresCullerâaka John Sutton, Ben Beres, and Zac Cullerâhave been making trouble since the 1990s, when they blocked off part of a building with a gigantic cinder block as a protest against restrictive policies. Over the years, they've caused stirs by floating around on an artificial island in Lake Washington and creating a joystick-controlled painting viewer module, among other installations and performances. At this new exhibition, they'll show that they've kept their sense of humor. New, deceptively functional-looking sculptures in glassâfragile hammers and mallets, three-stemmed wine glasses, breakable toilet plungersâwill be shown alongside bronze versions of neon signs, giant wearable LED arrows, and more. JOULE ZELMAN
(Pioneer Square, free)
Closing Saturday
27. Whiting Tennis: Drawing Room
In some past exhibitions, Whiting Tennis cleverly introduced abstraction into realistic landscapes by depicting austere architectural structures. His latest show, Drawing Room, is sparer (on monochrome backgrounds) yet more organic. The colors cohabit uneasily, and even the symmetrical designs look unstable. He favors compositions that don't allow the gaze to rest, but jostle it from shape to shape: intestinal tangles, chaotic patchworks, smudgy mazes, indefinable objects in confrontation. But this graphic agitation also appeals to the viewer's sense of play and freedom. Far from severe, the forms he invents are variously insectoid, childlike, flailing, drooping, and prowling.
