The Game of Exquisite Corpse
paragraph from Revolution by Any Means p229 (July 1925 - December 1926)
- the name was based on the first sentence
- one of Surrelism's richest new activities
- it involved composing a sentence in collaboration with several others, no one having seen what was already written
- suggestive power of those arbitrary juxtapositions of words
- so brilliantly verified the Surrealist thesis and mentality, that the game became a system, a research method...perhaps even a drug
- a question-and-answer variation on the Exquisite Corpse produced a curiously resonant definition: "What is André Breton? An amalgam of humor and a sense of disaster; something like a top hat"
- extended to include drawing (painters: Masson, Miró, Man Ray, Tanguy, and Ernst) -> artists and writers alike could join indistinguishably in producing these creations
- In early 1926, the new form(defining a specifically Surrealist art in Surrealism and Painting) of Exquisite Corpse added another arrow to his quiver.
- a further step toward codifying visual Surrelism by opening a Galerie Surréaliste at 16 Rue Jacques-Callot - showcase Surrelist art
- La Révolution surréaliste showcased Surrealist writing
Article from the book : Revolution of The Mind: The Life of André Breton
André Breton
- associated with Dadaist Tristan Tzara
- implemented the principle of automatic writing
- published the Surrealist Manifesto in 1924
