"Is it a game show about art? Or is it art about game shows?
I think it's just hilarious.
If you're a fan of Jeff "jeffu" Warmouth (Kaiju Big Battel, SPUDNIK), you won't be disappointed. Host Chorine hams it up to western hick perfection, and the guests are earnest while still able to add personal twists I've found lacking in other game shows. I'm no art critic, but I think if you have any interest in art, you'll at least find Art Show Down supremely entertaining.
Not mentioned in the description is the inclusion of bonus spoof commercials, each of which is it's own mini comedic art piece. As a final bonus, you can see me in the audience during the Ultimate Artist Showdown! But you'll more likely notice my three-year-old son -- who even now, a year later, still says, "Let's go to Art Showdown!" when we pass the former studio.
Thanks also to contestants Heidi and Andy for the cowboy hat (watch for it)!
