Coming Up With the AB concept by ScottNihill on January 10th, 2009

In the summer of 2007 artists Jon McCurley, Agi Gutkowska and Scott Nihill got together and discussed the possibility of a experimental documentary project entirely facilitated by artists creating self portraits and documentaries on others.

We whipped up a TAC application under the former name Multi-doc.

The idea was a documentary following Jon McCurley as he entered the lives of seven emerging Toronto artists, to assist them through their artistic block. In the Fall of 2007 the producers screened the documentary to a sold out crowd at the Theatre Centre in Toronto, and displayed the art work created by the seven “unblocked” artists.
