Davis Gallery: A Shared Vision
There are about as many "shared visions" as there are pairs of eyeballs in this miserable world, of course, but this show's title is intended to embody the greater meaning of the phrase and – the important part, here – it titles a collection of artwork by Denise M. Fulton and Sam Yeates. The vision of either of those local artists, and the skill each exerts in rendering that vision visible to the rest of us, is nigh on incredible. And now here are new paintings from both of them, the modern fabulists Fulton and Yeates capturing – via oldschool tech like pigments and brushes, imagine that! – realities (and fantasies) sufficient to fuel immersive dreams for years to come.Through April 13 -

Dimension Gallery: SWAARMS
This new body of work by Suzanne Wyss at Dimension is a protean body, a visual representation of working together to create something beautiful and bigger than the self, driven by an array of thread-growth machines that evolve their own structures, adding to and transforming the site all the way until the exhibition ends. (Admit it: You've been wondering what the artist would do next, ever since you saw the dank honey she visited upon Facebook Austin.) Did you catch the opening reception at this intimate venue, where Wyss' mechanisms were just beginning their complex industry? Come back this final weekend to witness the textile metamorphosis at its completion!Through April 7 -
