Have to disagree -- good art is made by artists not committees.
There's something to be said for having a circle of like-minded
individuals (a scene) who play off each other, but I don't think
that's the same as collaborative effort. Exquisite corpses are
amusing but not meaningfully so. Movies are good to the degree that
a single artistic presence dominates. Paintings...there are examples
of surrealist collaborations but nothing has lasted but the
individual perspectives.
