The GFAA presents: The Exquisite Corpse Art-A-Thon

The Exquisite Corpse Art-a-thon is back! Over 72 hours, participating artists will work in shifts in the gallery, with each artist getting just 24 hours to create one section of a collaborative artwork.

Exquisite Corpse is a collaborative art-making game developed by Surrealist artists in the 1920s. For each piece, artists create their section without seeing the previous work – with only a small portion of the previous section visible as a guide. The artwork is passed from one person to the next, creating unexpected juxtapositions and dreamlike compositions.

Watch the artists at work:
October 26–28 | 11 am–4 pm
GFAA Gallery

The Big Reveal:
October 30 | 7 pm-10 pm, reveal at 7:30 pm
during Artwalk Gainesville

And you can be part of it! Sponsor your favorite participating artist through their fundraising page. 30% of the funds they raise goes directly to the artist, while 70% supports GFAA’s exhibitions, programs, and resources for artists in our community.

Follow along as the works take shape, and join us for the reveal to see what happens when all the sections finally come together!
