A sculptor, a painter, an illustrator, a still photographer, a giant in the history of cinema; no matter the medium, Walerian Borowczyk (1923-2006) was always, above all else, an artist with an amazing vision. .
Although most known for his live-action films of eroticism and fetishistic symbolism, Borowczyk started off in film making short-subject cut-out animations assisted by Jan Lenica (see previous post) in the mid-50s. After a falling out with the fellow artist-turned-animator, Borowczyk continued with his work in animation throughout the 1960s, before turning to live-action feature films.
