Black Eyes
Known for immersive post-hardcore punk ruckus fueled by ample percussion, Black Eyes broke up just before their second album arrived in 2004. Following last year’s first shows in two decades, the D.C. act shares an ATX-sourced art rock bill with Wet Dip’s thrashing no wave and Water Damage’s instrumental droning. In a fascinating tie-in, Black Eyes drummer Mike Kanin has been based in Austin for some 15 years, where he plays in Water Damage and runs a sub-label of Astral Spirits Records. That’s not to mention his journalism career, including past roles as publisher of the Texas Observer and Austin Monitor (and Chronicle bylines). The punk publisher posted on Facebook: “That all makes this Austin show a kind of amazing confluence of two very significant parts of my life.” – Rachel RascoeFri., Jan. 26, 7:30pm. $20. -

The Diviners
Directed by Milton Zoth, the Austin Repertory Theater’s production of The Diviners features the unique experience of professional actors cast alongside high schoolers, thus allowing for students to learn from theatre industry practitioners. The play, written by Jim Leonard Jr. and first performed in 1980, takes place in the fictional town of Zion, Indiana, during the Great Depression, and as ART puts it, tells “a story of redemption between an anguished young man and a disenchanted southern preacher.” - Lina FisherFri.-Sun., Jan. 26-28 -

Big Medium: No Kings But Us
"The collaborative back-and-forth between artists Robert Hodge and Tim Kerr is as compelling and intriguing for what is on display as for what is not. This exhibition presents the vivid yet amorphous residue of a contested, negotiated, and ultimately collaborative chronicle. It gathers swatches of 20th- and 21st-century history as recounted by artists from different generations and backgrounds, who share as many crossovers as they do variations."Opening reception: Fri., Jan. 12, 8-10pm -

Carver Museum: Two Births and the Afterlife
You think it’s easy, being somebody’s mother? You think giving birth to another human being doesn’t put your own humanity and purpose under some fierce self-scrutiny? Milwaukee-based artist Aimée M. Everett, in her solo show at the George Washington Carver Museum and Cultural Center, uses abstraction, minimalist line-making, saturated colors, and melodic compositions to explore “the profound transformations experienced during childbirth and the subsequent journey of self-discovery into motherhood.” Word – or, more appropriately, image – to your mother. – Wayne Alan BrennerOpening reception: Thu., Jan. 11, 6-8pm -
