In any game of word association the term 'bird sculptor' is most
likely to prompt the name Guy Taplin. But Britain's most successful
avian image maker is also in a field of his own - with a story like
no other in the art world. A beautiful and revelatory new book
about the Taplin life and work charts a riveting journey from the
wartime East End to the wilds of the Essex coast. En route the
self-taught artist, hurtling through many careers before finding
his feet and pouring his spirit into sculpture, has meandered as
far as the driftwood he turns into magical art. Written by "East
Anglian" author Ian Collins, a close friend of Guy Taplin for the
past decade, the book will trace the obsessions and adventures in a
very creative life. It features interviews with many artists,
writers and collectors and a foreword by Michael Palin.
