In October we introduced to you, The Exquisite Book here on the blog. And now this month to help them end their blog tour, we're happy to be able to offer one of their books as a "giveaway" which will include the book along with a journal (courtesy of the folks at Chronicle Books)!
In case you missed our mention, or other mentions online about the book. The Exquisite Book is a book where 100 artists came together to play or reinvent the classic surrealist drawing game, The Exquisite Corpse in a book version. Each artist having only seen the page of the artist immediately prior continues on a visual journey with a roller-coaster narrative, each page completely different from the next. Each of the book's ten chapters resides on a ten-page accordian style fold-out that displays the artwork in an interconnected stream, as it was originally created by the artists.
To enter the giveaway, leave a comment here by Wednesday, November 10th (8pm Pacific) and we'll announce a winner on or before Friday, November 12th.
