Roland Topor's career often intersected with many of my favorite touchstones. He was a cofounder of the Panic Movement with Fernando Arrabal and Alejandro Jodorowski. Created the drawings for the great Czech animated film Fantastic Planet. Wrote the eerie novel The Tenant, basis of Polanski's film. Played Renfield in Herzog's Nosferatu. Provided the illustrations for Fluxus artist Daniel Spoerri's book An Anecdoted Topography of Chance. Following are the opening credits to Arrabal's Viva La Muerte with drawings by Topor.
