Anna Boghiguian<\/strong>
<\/em>Turner Contemporary, Margate, to 26<\/em> October<\/em>
The history of the seas resurfaces like a sinister wreck in this gallery beside Margate beach. The place of the oceans in global trade, colonialism and enslavement is evoked by a raucous installation that includes broken wooden boats as well as sand, painted maps and a gallery of cutout characters.<\/p>\n

Dr Esther Mahlangu<\/strong>
<\/em>Serpentine Gallery North Garden, London, to 28<\/em> September<\/em>
In search of outdoor art to combine with a park afternoon in late summer? Make for this mural in the garden of the Serpentine Gallery.

Emma Critchley<\/strong>
<\/em>Tate St<\/em> Ives, to 5<\/em> October<\/em>
If you are in St Ives in August you\u2019re probably experiencing the sea at its most exciting and enticing, and Critchley\u2019s video and sound installation invites you to take a deeper look.

Jess Blandford<\/strong>
<\/em>Southwark Park Galleries, London, to 21<\/em> September<\/em>
What makes a good abstract painting? It has something to do with believing it is necessary rather than willed, that it is meaningful even if you can\u2019t put it into words. Jess Blandford\u2019s art has these qualities, as well as fleshy, sensual colours and brushstrokes, reminiscent of Willem de Kooning. Jonathan Jones<\/em><\/p>\n
