Skye Sherwin's A Good Look

Mishka Westell’s poster for the 1960s psych rock act, from this year’s Austin Psych Fest, is a pitch perfect example of rock’n’roll’s insatiable appetite for eating its own tail. True to subject, Westell revives the psychedelic style of celebrated San Francisco artists Mouse and Kelley, itself a revision of art nouveau’s decorative detail gone wild. Photograph: PR

Children’s author and illustrator Tomi Ungerer’s latest offering is about “fear of the unknown”. Here, the little seafarers dwarfed by a dark lonely rock suggest the symbolist painter Arnold Böcklin’s Isle Of The Dead. Photograph: PR
