This fundraiser event at SITE Santa Fe will feature artist teams collaborating live on Exquisite Corpse drawings. Attendees have the opportunity to watch their favorite artist teams at work and buy drawings as they are completed. It’s an honor to have been selected as a featured artist.
Exquisite Corpse, also known as exquisite cadaver (from the original French term cadavreexquis), is a chance-based parlor game by which images are collectively assembled. Each collaborator adds to a composition in sequence by being allowed to see only the end of what the previous person contributed. Popularized by Surrealist Artists like André Breton, Yves Tanguy, Joan Miró, and Man Ray, the Exquisite Corpse was a perfect creative tool, involving elements of chance, unseen elements, and group collaboration- all in service of disrupting the waking mind’s penchant for order.
SITE Santa Fe Thanks the many talented artists creating exquisite corpse drawings: Janet Abrams, Patrick Bernatchez, Paula Castillo, Lawrence Fodor, Cannupa Hanska Luger, Dan Namingha, Michael Namingha , Willy Bo Richardson, Alexis Rockman, Charles Ross, Robert Stivers * And many more…!

November 19 – December 12, 2021 Artist Reception: Friday November 19, 5-7pm
Reception: Saturday October 7, 5 – 8pm In conjunction with SITE Santa Fe’s grand re-opening, Surroundings welcomes to their space Danae Falliers and Willy Bo Richardson. This multi-decade series I started while in graduate school is lifting off the ground. My personal development and contribution is a load-stone that orients to the cycles of the moon and to the gentle lapping of waves. Intelligent people are aware of the noise in our politics and entertainment, our greed driven economy and workaholic culture, yet so few visual object in our culture relieve this pressure. This is the gift I wish to share. Take a deep breath. Get back in touch with the canopy of stars that holds us, our earth and sense of place and home.
