The Norwegian-born Glasgow alumnus presents an exacting study in form, including industrial-tinged work such as Valentina (above) and newer pieces that form 'character and costume, scenery and action' in an anthropomorphic play. Catch them at the New Art Centre, Roche Court, Salisbury, by 30 January Photograph: Camilla Low
This Dorset-born artist's gorgeous, promiscuous sculptures in luscious hard-candy colours recall Donald Judd and Philip King, undercutting echoes of the toy shop and the furrniture showroom with cheeky pop references. This show, Key Largo, is on at The Approach in east London until 30 January

Manon de Boer's films are poetic documents of a hazy, befuddled place called memory. In film's such as Dissonant (above), the people, thoughts and events recorded in the Dutch artist's outstanding first UK survey show unravel in myriad directions. Get to the South London Gallery, London, before 23 January

It's hard to say what drawings such as Ellipsis (above) are actually of, never mind what they are about. Perhaps that's what makes them so charismatic. Could these meticulous forms, grown from thousands of creeping and crawling pencil and silverpoint lines, be microscopic organisms?

Ultima Thule, the title of this photographic exhibition, refers both to the wildernesses of Vaughan's beloved Iceland and to more mythical landscapes that lie beyond the mapped world. These shots reveal an almost unearthly discord of glacial ice and sulphurous eruptions warring away beneath a deceptively calm topography. On show at Tullie House Museum and Art Gallery, Carlisle, until 6 February
