Show Summary

  • Ended

This show is specially devoted to children as an introduction to art, by using whatever they can find at their own homes and most of the time without purchasing a thing. From balloons to paper stencils, children learn how to make "art" with the always indispensable creativity and imagination, things that can barely be found in shows for children. A good choice as a violence-free show, that can be also educational, not only for kids, but also for us, grown-ups as a burst of good ideas for home-made gifts. Art Attack was was nominated for a BAFTA Award in 1992, 1993, 1995, 1996, 1997 and 2002 for Best Children's (Factual) Programme.

    When I was a kid, I would watch Art Attack almost everyday. I would usually try to follow along with whatever art project Neil was making. Although it wouldn't turn out as good as he made his, but I had a good time. It was fun and you can really learn a lot from watching Art Attack. To be honest I still watch an episode of it, here and there. It's really fun to watch and Neil is very creative. I think that Art Attack is a very good TV show for kids. It gives kids an enjoyable and creative activity to do.moreless

    Another show for kids, but I don't mind! I loved watching this show. The host (whatever his name is :D) is really cool and creative and innovative. SOme of his creations, I used during some of my projects back then. His ideas are just awesome. And the best thing about it is that you can use old materials to create beautiful things! This way we can make the most of our wastes and perhaps help the earth! I also love his drawing at the ends of the show wherein he creates a huge piece of art! I wonder how he thinks of those! Truly amazing!moreless

    Well I don't really like this show, but i think it's educational. This show is really informative for kids that have a great interest in art. It teaches you to draw and how to use water color better. If you like water color u really can't miss this show. Though i think this show is kinda boring, unless like i say you love art, wants to be an artist, is an artist and have nothing else to do. Well i'm not being mean but it is true. The reason i gave it 6.5 is because i think it is educational, interesting, no.moreless

  • Art Attack may be the first major emulator to new artists or, at least, provide moments of healthy entertainment.

    Writing material for children is hard stuff. Kids are harsh critics and will solemly change the channel whenever the show isn't appealing. Art Attack is an open door to creativity. The images are clear, details are shown with precision, every art piece work is shown step by step, and then the kid has a chance to review the process. My grandsons are simply attached to Art Attack and often my son's house adds new features by the kids, drawings, sculptures, dioramas and cut-outs. The idea of the program is simple and brilliant. In Brazil, Art Attack is an everyday presentation, Disney Channel, and it's a shame not all kids can watch it.moreless

    great art idea's and tips!if you enjoy doing art in your spare time then this is definetly the show for you.it tells you handy hints that you can use in your art that nobody else knows,because it's not basic stuff,so you can have your piece of art unique.this show also shows you not just basic untinsels like paper but also things like cardboard and old peices around the house.it has great ideas of how to make stuff like in onee of the episodes he made a city with old garbage(clean of course)it's made for kids so don't get the wrong impression,like he does things like octupus wall picture hangers and halloween spooky things and more.the show explains how to do things really well aswell like they go over it in easy steps so you don't nessercerily need pen and paper to write it all down.you can send stuff into the show that you've done and he also does big art attacks with normal objects that you find around a certain place,the guys really good you gotta hand it to him!it definetly incourages you to do some art and get creative!not many shows are like this so i think it's underatted!they show art in a fun way so you don't just have to sit there and listen to boring steps!i'm not even into art i hav'nt really ever done anything to do with art but i still watch it because it's interesting.this show should definetly be on more!alot more!moreless
