Hamish Fulton, AKA 'the walking artist', champions an eco-conscious art form that engages with the land, while leaving no trace upon it. His exhibition, Walk, is at Turner Contemporary until 7 May 2012 Photograph: PR
The women Margherita Manzelli paints seem to have a lot on their minds. The results are deeply creepy, evoking Francis Bacon's tormented souls or Egon Schiele's twisted teens. Above, MC J # 6, 2010, by Margherita Manzelli. At Greengrassi, SE11, until 25 February 2012 Photograph: PR
Mackie's latest show, Painting the Weights, is named after the process of turning physical matter into digital animation. On tables and shelves, and within a network of steel bars hugging the wall, are protean works pointing to tensions and transitions between the real and virtual world.

While Paul Mason is perhaps still best known for his civic commissions, this first show of his work since his untimely death in 2006 will reveal an artist of far wider creative range than could have been imagined.

'Ugliness can be profoundly beautiful,' says photographer Mark Power, recalling the 25 visits he made to Poland over a period of five years. He titles this resulting exhibition The Sound of Two Songs in tribute to the country 'bursting with visual contradictions' he came to love with a profound aesthetic ambivalence.

Deja vu is even more striking when triggered by a place of no apparent significance, or so the artists in this show might persuade us. Among them is Laura Oldfield Ford, who applies her ballpoint to the unsung charms of Leytonstone and Walsall. Above, Leytonstone 1995 1999 2012, Pen on paper, 2010/11, by Laura Oldfield Ford. At New Art Gallery Walsall until 14 April 2012

Anna Barriball draws things that are not there and disguises things that are. Paper is placed over a door and drawn on so persistently that the door's every contour and indentation is recorded as a graphite tracery. Her drawings take on an air of obsessive ritual.

This show of mostly recent landscape paintings sees Hockney transform his native Yorkshire's fields, woods and country lanes into vivid panoramas. Above, Winter Tunnel with Snow, March, 2006. A Bigger Picture is at Royal Academy of Arts, W1, until 9 April 2012 Photograph: Richard Schmidt
