Art Blast

Matt is hungry, but don't dismay, Rich is about to take him to a real feast...for the eyes. Will Matt be satisfied? Find out in Art Blast- the show that dunks art nuggets into the BBQ sauce of your mind.

Is Art a load of rubbish? In this Art Blast it is. Rich and Matt look at artists who use discarded and found materials and then upcycle them into art. Hard rubbish must be like Christmas for these artists.

Sheep, cows and - lazers? Hapless Rich attempts to peacefully rest his eyes on paintings of the pastoral countryside. But Matt has other ideas.

Art comes in all shapes and sizes, from the massive to the micro. In this Art Blast Rich and Matt explore ideas of scale in Art. Rich has fun, Matt goes bonkers.

What's with all the 'isms? When Art fan Rich explains to Art noob Matt that Impressionism, Futurism, Cubism are all art movements, Matt wants to come up with his own art movement, about Fluff.

Artists try and trick our eyes using visual illusions. This is called 'Trompe L'oeil', French for 'trick the eye'. However Matt finds this phrase too hard to say, so he makes up his own.

What's your favourite colour? It's an easy question...isn't it? Unfortunately for Rich, Matt doesn't think so.

If a picture of yourself is called a selfie, then surely a picture of someone else is called a Someone Elsie, (and a picture of a butt is called a smellfie?). Well that's what Matt reckons anyway.

When Rich has problems with his creativity Matt suggests an unusual solution, a Mind Poo. In this Art Blast Rich takes a trip through Surreal Art to see where Art ideas come from.

When is a banana not a banana? When it's Art. It's not always easy to know what Art looks like. So when Rich boasts about his Art knowledge Matt decides to give him a little test.
