Description

In a parlor game played by the Surrealist group—the foremost avant-gardists of their time—participants made their marks on the quadrants of a folded sheet of paper: a many-eyed head, a distorted torso, hands fondling swollen breasts, snarling reptilian-dog feet descending from an egg-shaped midsection. The “Exquisite Corpse,” as it was called, is still very much alive, having found artistic and critical expression from the days of the Surrealists down to our own. This method has been used in collective artistic protocols as the “rules of engagement” for experimental art, as a form of social interaction, and as an alternative mode of critical thinking.

This collection is the first to address both historical and contemporary works that employ the ritual of the cadavre exquis. It offers a unique overview of the efforts of scholars and artists to articulate new notions of crossing temporal and spatial boundaries and to experience in a new way the body’s mutability through visual, auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic frames. Bringing together diverse writers from across disciplinary boundaries, this volume continues the cultural and methodological innovations that have unfolded since the first days of the “Exquisite Corpse.”

Wenone of te editors posted a call for a panel on te Revival of te Exquisite Corpse for te Retinking te Avant-garde Confer-ence eld at Notre Dame University in April , te ﬁrst conver-sations among us began about te resurgence in te practice of te Exquisite Corpse and te need for more scolarsip to cronicle te canging visage of te Corpse. A special tanks to Megan McSane and Kimberley Jannarone for joining me at te panel and for te subsequent conversations. Along te way many people ave joined us in tis conversation, and we are particularly grateful to Ladette Randolp, Kristen Elias Rowley, and te University of Nebraska Press for all teir support and interest in tis project. he insigtful feedback from te anonymous readers of te original manuscript as led to many revisions and an immensely better book. We owe tanks as well to many oter people and institutions for te production of tis book, and we wis to tank te University of Wasington-Botell and Lake Forest College. We particularly wis to recognize te contribution of Lake Forest College students San-non Green, Daniel Kolen, Jennifer Murpy, and Benjamin Lund-quist, as well as Elizabet Weaver at te University of Wasing-ton-Botell. Witout teir elp in many aspects of te publication process, tis collection would still be just a piece of folded paper.
