Serge GAINSBOURG resumes his surrealist “Exquisite Corpse”.

“Let’s play the exquisite corpse game – Just to take our minds off our boredom – You write a random word – And I’ll write another one after you.”

1.800

Serge Gainsbourg (1928.1991)

Signed Autograph Notes – Exquisite Corpse

A quarto page on Floch printing paper.

Without place or date [Paris. 1986]

 

In preparation for his anthology published by Denoël, Mon propre rôle , Serge Gainsbourg reworked, annotated and validated the proofs of his song Le cadavre exquis written in 1975 for the B side of the 45 rpm record L'Ami Caouette .

There is no doubt that his love for the Dadaist and Surrealist movements inspired and invited the artist to write about this mythical game.

If we played the exquisite corpse game

To help us pass our time a little bored

You write a word of nonsense

And I'm writing another one after you.

The little shit fly

Doubled down

There are kicks that get lost

In rubles

Yes, that's the game of exquisite corpse.

We're going to play it all night

Emmanuelle loves caresses

Oral and manual

Shake your butt a little

She told me

I prefer to play the exquisite corpse game.

Than putting it on all night

Black humor comes from Africa

Example Amin Dada

I tape

For him

OK
