| Dan Clowes Fantagraphics Bookstore & Gallery | Every week Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., August 29 until Tue., October 7, 6:00pm | Georgetown | |
 Maybe, for a certain kind of reader, it took the presence of Scarlett Johansson in the movie version of Ghost World to bring the quiet, meditative art of Dan Clowes to a wider audience. Since then, he and director Terry Zwigoff collaborated on Art School Confidential, and now comes Ghost World:... More >> |

| Innovation and Imagination SAM Gallery | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Thu., September 18 until Sat., October 11 | Downtown | |
 A strange and colorful apartment building is opened to your prying eyes. Inside are cartoonish figures—faceless humans and fantastic-looking creatures. This is Future Creature Sleeps, a digital print on canvas by Eunjung Hwang, hung in the window for your voyeurism. In Hwang’s crowded... More >> |

| Julie Blackmon: Domestic Vacations G. Gibson Gallery | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Thu., September 11 until Sat., October 11, 11:00am | Pioneer Square | |
 Despite growing up in a place where it sometimes snows in June, I never once had the pleasure of a snow day in my adolescence. Instead I stared out the classroom windows picturing the snowball fights, sledding, and freedom that are undoubtedly part of such a magical day. So when I saw Julie... More >> |

| April Brimer: Portraits of Curiosity McLeod Residence | Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Thu., October 9 until Sat., November 22 | Belltown | |
 Looking at April Brimer’s portraits, you can’t help but wonder what is happening. Why is that girl’s popcorn flying out of its box? Does that foxy lady know there’s a fox under her bed? And who is that hunk in the sexy horn-rimmed glasses? Is it me? Unfortunately there... More >> |

| Christian French: Work in a Capitol Hill Storefront Broadway East and East John Street | Daily from Wed., September 24 until Fri., October 31 | Capitol Hill | |
 A shaggy, faux-fur couch, a pair of dancing dresses, and a video seen through a foot-wide cardboard tube now appear in several vacant storefronts just north of Broadway and John. This block is slated for demolition to make way for the Capitol Hill Sound Transit Station, but until then, art will... More >> |

| Don’t You Fucking Look at Me: Surveillance in the 21st Century 911 Seattle Media Arts Center | Daily from Fri., September 12 until Fri., October 31 | Eastlake & South Lake Union | |
 We’ve got red-light cams at traffic intersections (unless Tim Eyman stops them), and some argue the police should also use video surveillance to clean up Victor Steinbrueck Park and Third and Pine. So it’s a good time to visit Don’t You Fucking Look at Me: Surveillance in the... More >> |

| David Entrikin: Outsiders The Upstairs Gallery | Every week Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Wed., September 24 until Fri., November 14 | Ballard | |
 David Entrikin’s hobby is photography. And his subject matter—the homeless—is so often photographed by pros that supermodels must be getting jealous. Forgive me, then, that when I first heard of Entrikin’s show “Outsiders” (on view through Nov. 14), I dismissed it... More >> |

| DuPen Fountain Seattle Center | Daily | Queen Anne | |
 Seattle Center is in upheaval. The Sonics have gone to Oklahoma, KeyArena is struggling to find new events to fill the revenue gap, Memorial Stadium is crumbling, the Fun Forest will soon close, and the ongoing Century 21 makeover plan is gonna take a whole lot of money to implement. But in... More >> |

| Geoff McFetridge: The Mind Olympic Sculpture Park | Daily from Tue., April 29 until Tue., March 31 | Belltown | |
 Better known for his design work for Nike, Burton Snowboards, and Marc Jacobs, the L.A.–based artist Geoff McFetridge has taken over the PACCAR Pavilion with a graphically strong installation. The Mind encompasses the entire sloped-ceiling space, with a crowd of line-drawn faces papering... More >> |

| The Wall of Death University Bridge | Daily | Eastlake & South Lake Union | |
 Installed in 1993, The Wall of Death may occupy, after the Fremont Troll, the worst site for public art in Seattle. It’s only visible to those on the Burke-Gilman Trail and UW students and staffers traversing down to the Portage Bay side of campus. It gets almost no sun, and even less... More >> |

| Stronghold University of Washington Campus | Daily | University District | |
 The original UW campus downtown was once covered with old-growth timber, as was its present location when the school moved north in 1895. Now, as that institution continues its inexorable sprawl south of Pacific Street toward Portage Bay, New York artist Brian Tolle reminds us of that arboreal... More >> |

| John Grade: Disintegration, Sculpture through Landscape Bellevue Arts Museum | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Tue., August 26 until Sun., November 30 | Bellevue | |
 A slot canyon has appeared at the Bellevue Arts Museum, but instead of water-smoothed stone, the interior of this narrow passageway by John Grade is dressed in a coat of goat hair, softening the rounded, convex forms. It might be dark as you make your way inside, and you might experience a bit... More >> |

| Jenny Heishman: Water Mover Ernst Park | Daily | Fremont | |
 Unbuilt lots, even sloped blackberry patches sitting on unstable soil, are fast disappearing in Seattle. Particularly in Fremont, where townhouses sprout like mushrooms, any real-estate resistance is appreciated. Sitting next to the Fremont Branch Library, A.B. Ernst Park was completed four... More >> |

| Michael Heizer’s Adjacent, Against, Upon Myrtle Edwards Park | Daily | Downtown | |
 Since opening last year, the Olympic Sculpture Park has somehow eclipsed and subsumed the identity of Myrtle Edwards Park, which was established (with a different name) back in 1964, when SAM was still a small institution confined to Capitol Hill. The narrow old shoreline park was renamed in... More >> |

| Arctic Wings: Miracle of Migration Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture | Every week Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Wed., October 1 until Wed., December 31 | University District | |
 Sarah Palin must not have many bird houses in the backyard of her Alaska governor’s mansion. After all, the veep nominee is all about drilling in ANWR, which, as seven contributing photographers show us in “Arctic Wings: Miracle of Migration” (through Dec. 31), is a temporary... More >> |

| Wade Kavanaugh’s Regrade Suyama Space | Every week Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday from Wed., October 1 until Fri., December 12 | Belltown | |
 Belltown’s Suyama Space is situated on a plot of land unearthed by rushing water. Sixteen million cubic yards of soil were blasted from Denny Hill in the early 1900s—the city planners’ big idea to create a thriving business district in what came to be known as the Denny Regrade.... More >> |

| "Empire" Frye Art Museum | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Sat., September 20 until Sun., January 4 | Downtown | |
 As the U.S. occupation of Iraq drags on, as the inflamed Arab Middle East continues to assign that loaded word—occupation—to the Israeli-controlled West Bank territories, the Frye’s new show “Empire” (through Jan. 4) is timely. It runs in tandem with “Napoleon on... More >> |

| Gaze: Vision, Desire, and Difference in the Frye Collections Frye Art Museum | Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Sun., August 31 until Sun., January 4, 10:00am | Downtown | |
 Timothy Lowly’s large-scale portrait Temma on Earth shows his young daughter, physically and mentally disabled since birth, lying helpless in the dirt. Most haunting is the expression on her face: mouth gaping open and blank eyes staring at something—or is it nothing?—that we... More >> |
