Roland Topor. Panic: The Golden Years

Amsterdam, Stedelijk Museum, 1975. Album with double sleeves, 31 x 31 cm, containing a 33 rpm vinyl record and 15 loosely inserted printed documents pertaining to the show, such as an exhibition list, biblio and biography, b/w images, and texts. Good copy, including the often-missing inserts.

Produced in conjunction with a show of drawings and graphics at the Stedelijk Museum, in collaboration with Freddy de Vree and Ad Petersen. Designed by Wim Crouwel and the artist. Roland Topor (1938 - 1997) was a French illustrator, painter, writer, filmmaker and actor who generally made surrealistic and absurd works. The record reflects his humorous attitude, with Topor making strange sounds in French and Dutch.
