Drawings from The Exquisite Book by Mike Perry, Camilla Engman, Lab Partners, and Nick Dewar.

Have you ever played the game Exquisite Corpse? It's not as morbid as it sounds—I swear! The Exquisite Book is a drawing project based on this age-old game, which will culminate this fall with a book release and exhibition. There are lots of ways to play, but in this instance, 100 artists were asked to create a page for a book that continues the story of, and is based solely on the page that comes before their own.

I might've made that sound complicated, but it's actually really simple and fun. You may not realize it at first glance, but if you look at some of the key visual elements in the image above, they all connect in unexpectedly beautiful ways. The result is a book packed full of wildly different styles of illustration, made coherent by a simple set of rules.

What's more, a handful of 20x200 edition-makers were asked to contribute to the project. Inside you'll find pages by Kate Bingaman-Burt, Jill Bliss, Lisa Congdon and Mike Perry. Take a look at the list of artists, because you're sure to spot some more of our favorites on there.

For more information, check out Julia Rothman's blog post announcing the project and then swing by the official website. Congratulations to Julia and the team at ALSO for putting together The Exquisite Book, which will be published by our friends at Chronicle Books this fall.
