Exhibitionist: The week's art shows in pictures

Exhibitionist2201: Daniel Sinsel
Daniel Sinsel, London
Untitled ii by Daniel Sinsel (above). The artist presents studies in space, volume and illusion, with paintings whose libidinal charge throbs in trompe l'oeil views of fabric folds, razor slits, holes and intrusive wooden flutes. At Chisenhale gallery to 13 March

Dinh Q Lê, Birmingham
South China Sea Pishkun is a remarkable digital animation by Vietnamese artist Dinh Q Lê that tackles the grim futilities of warfare with an almost hallucinatory metaphorical force. At CBSO Centre, Sat & Sun

Exhibitionist2201: John Goto
John Goto, Edinburgh
Mosaic 3, 2009 (above) forms part of an intriguing installation that obliquely addresses Operation Cast Lead, the 2008-9 Israel Defence Forces attack on the Gaza Strip that resulted in between 1,166 and 1,417 Palestinian and 13 Israeli deaths. Goto uses picture-editing software to filter images from the conflict and transform them into large-scale digital abstracts. At Edinburgh Printmakers, to 19 March

Exhibitionist2201: Lucia Nogueira
Lucia Nogueira, Cambridge
The late Brazilian-born, London-based artist's thin washes of watercolour and inky splodges depict images from rows of sunglasses to a slouching figure in a hooded top, all cast adrift against a void of white paper. At Kettle's Yard, to 13 March

Exhibitionist2201: Phillip King
Phillip King, London
In this mini-survey of King's career you can see key early works that include the brutalist Window Piece, a white plaster box set on the floor, while his latest works, such as Emergence, 2007 (above), continue a theme of coloured constellations in offbeat materials like foam. At Flowers gallery, to 19 February
