Surrealist Parlor Games - The Exquisite Corpse

Ms. M : Today we are going to make Exquisite Corpse drawings.
Student: We are going to draw a bunch of dead people!? 
Ms. M: Not exactly... 

The game of Exquisite Corpse drawing began as a Surrealist Parlor Game in which players take turns drawing on the same sheet of paper. The paper is divided into three sections. The first player draws the head of the corpse, then folds the paper to conceal part of the drawing, and then pass it to the next player for a further contribution (body and legs). 


Below are some of the Art 1 & Art 2 Exquisite Corpse Drawings. 


Happy Creating, 


Ms. M
