'''Exquisite corpse''' (from the original French term '''''{{Lang|fr|cadavre exquis}}''''', {{literal|'''exquisite cadaver'''}}) is a method by which a collection of words or images is collectively assembled. Each collaborator adds to a composition in sequence, either by following a rule (e.g., "The ''[[adjective]]'' ''[[noun]]'' ''[[adverb]]'' ''[[verb]]'' the ''adjective'' ''noun''." as in "The green duck sweetly sang the dreadful dirge."){{Citation needed|date=July 2023}} or by being allowed to see only the end of what the previous person contributed.

==History==
This technique was invented by [[surrealism|surrealist]]s and is similar to an old [[parlour game]] called [[Consequences (game)|consequences]] in which players write in turn on a sheet of paper, fold it to conceal part of the writing, and then pass it to the next player for a further contribution. Surrealism principal founder [[André Breton]] reported that it started in fun, but became playful and eventually enriching. Breton said the diversion started about 1925, but [[Pierre Reverdy]] wrote that it started much earlier, at least as early as 1918.<ref name="Breton" >{{cite web|url=http://exquisitecorpse.com/definition/Bretons_Remembrances.html|title=Breton Remembers|last=Breton|first=André|author-link=André Breton|date=7 October 1948|access-date=30 September 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080127195653/http://exquisitecorpse.com/definition/Bretons_Remembrances.html|archive-date=27 January 2008|url-status=dead}} Exhibition catalogue, ''{{Lang|fr|Le Cadavre Exquis: Son Exaltation}}'', La Dragonne, Galerie Nina Dausset, Paris (October 7–30).</ref>

The name is derived from a phrase that resulted when Surrealists first played the game, "{{Lang|fr|Le cadavre exquis boira le vin nouveau.}}" ("The exquisite corpse shall drink the new wine.")<ref name="Breton"/><ref>{{cite book|last=Brotchie|first=Alastair|author2=Mel Gooding|title=Surrealist Games|publisher=[[Redstone Press]]|year=1991|location=London|pages=143–144|isbn=1-870003-21-7}}</ref> André Breton writes that the game developed at the residence of friends at an old house in [[Montparnasse]], 54 rue du Château (no longer existing). Besides himself he mentions [[Marcel Duhamel]], [[Jacques Prévert]], [[Yves Tanguy]] and [[Benjamin Péret]] as original participants.<ref name="Breton"/><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.pusanweb.com/poetryplus/poetryplus16/corpse/exquisite.htm#exquisite|title=The Exquisite Corpse|year=2009|publisher=Poetry Plus|access-date=28 March 2009}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=OctoberCMS |title=The Exquisite Corpse |url=https://vintana.ph/article/exquisite-corpse |access-date=2023-08-03 |website=vintana.ph |language=en}}</ref>


[[Henry Miller]] often played the game to pass time in French cafés during the 1930s.<ref>{{Cite book |last1=Kochhar-Lindgren |first1=Kanta |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=IdeR6vrFBeEC&dq=Exquisite+corpse+henry+miller&pg=PA320 |title=The Exquisite Corpse: Chance and Collaboration in Surrealism's Parlor Game |last2=Schneiderman |first2=Davis |last3=Denlinger |first3=Tom |date=2009-12-01 |publisher=U of Nebraska Press |isbn=978-0-8032-2781-1 |language=en}}</ref>

In 1932, artists [[Frida Kahlo]] and [[Lucienne Bloch]] created two near-nude exquisite corpses.<ref>{{Citation |last=Ms Marissa Lynn |title=Frida Kahlo & Lucienne Bloch - Exquisite Corpse |date=2012-02-20 |url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/missmarissalynn/6914856395/ |access-date=2023-08-03}}</ref> One is titled "Frida"<ref>{{Cite web |title=Frida Kahlo {{!}} Exquisite corpse (Frida) |url=https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/838685 |access-date=2023-08-03 |website=The Metropolitan Museum of Art |language=en}}</ref> and the other "Diego"<ref>{{Cite web |title=Frida Kahlo {{!}} Exquisite corpse (Diego) |url=https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/838686 |access-date=2023-08-03 |website=The Metropolitan Museum of Art |language=en}}</ref> (likely meant to represent Kahlo herself and her husband, muralist [[Diego Rivera]]).

==Picture consequences==

Later the game was adapted to [[drawing]] and [[collage]], in a version called '''picture consequences''', with portions of a person replacing the written sentence fragments of the original.<ref name="indep">{{cite news|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/art-and-architecture/great-works/cozens-alexander-a-blot-tigers-c177080-744402.html|title=Cozens, Alexander: ''A Blot: Tigers'' (c. 1770–80)|quote=about [[Alexander Cozens]]|access-date=24 September 2008|date=13 April 2007|last=Lubbock|first=Tom|work=[[The Independent]]|archive-url=https://archive.today/20080925051007/http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/art-and-architecture/great-works/cozens-alexander-a-blot-tigers-c177080-744402.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=2008-09-25}}</ref> The person is traditionally drawn in four steps: The head, the torso, the legs and the feet with the paper folded after each portion so that later participants cannot see earlier portions.<ref name="tattoo">{{cite web|last=Budden|first=Jo|title=Essential UK – Tattoos|url=http://www.britishcouncil.org/languageassistant-tattoos.htm#para1|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090114203229/http://www.britishcouncil.org/languageassistant-tattoos.htm#para1|archive-date=14 January 2009|access-date=24 September 2008|publisher=[[British Council]]}}</ref><ref name="rainy">{{cite web|date=1 June 2007|title=Rainy days survival guide|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/this-britain/rainy-days-survival-guide-451282.html|access-date=24 September 2008|work=[[The Independent]]}}</ref> The finished product is similar to children's books in which the pages were cut into thirds, the top third pages showing the head of a person or animal, the middle third the torso, and the bottom third the legs, with children having the ability to "mix and match" by turning pages.

Another variation of the exquisite corpse also called "picture consequences" is [[Telephone Pictionary]], a game in which players alternate writing descriptions and matching illustrations based on the previous step.<ref>{{cite book|title=The Giant Book of Word Games: The Bumper Book of Ingenious and Enjoyable Games for all Occasions|isbn=1-86309-172-6|first=Peter|last=Newby|pages=42–43|publisher=The Book Company|year=1995}}</ref>
