Exquisite Corpse
A monumental collaborative work by the notorious British duo Jake and Dinos Chapman, *Exquisite Corpse* takes its name from the Surrealist drawing game in which images are created in sequence without full knowledge of what has come before. Published by The Paragon Press in London and issued in a limited edition of 20, this signed and numbered print exemplifies the Chapmans' darkly irreverent engagement with art historical traditions and collective authorship. The work's careful documentation — numbered 17/20 in pencil on the reverse, with an additional six artists' proofs — speaks to its status as a considered and collectible édition d'artiste.
