DRAWINGS
EXQUISITE CORPSES
These are a few examples of Exquisite Corpse collaborations with Martin de Diego, Rodney Gee and Bernard Dumaine
The Exquisite Corpse is a game invented by the surrealists in the first part of the 20th century. For example: One person makes half a drawing and covers it in such a way that only a small strip of the drawing is visible. The next person starts with that strip to complete the drawing, to uncover it only when the drawing is completed so that the final result will be a surprise.

PLEASE NOTE:
We are currently rebuilding our website with a new theme - so temporarily this site is functional, but a construction zone.
Headers, background and certain special new functions will be built in, respectively changed. Additionally, most Slide Shows used to be embedded from our Private Social Network on Ning. Since Ning discontinued Flash some time ago, the space where the embedded slide shows supposed to be is blank!
We are working to fix this as well, but with over 500 pages for artists alone, this will take time.
