Errol Fuller

Errol Fuller is an English writer and painter. He’s the author of a series of books on the subject of extinction and extinct creatures, including Extinct Birds; The Great Auk; The Lost Birds of Paradise; Dodo – From Extinction to Icon; and, in conjunction with the New Zealand artist Raymond Ching, Kiwis.

He has also produced, in both English and Arabic, a catalogue for The National Council for Culture, Arts and Heritage, Qatar, to complement an exhibition held in Doha during 2004, titled Lost Worlds. Recently, he has departed from the natural history theme and written a large-scale monograph on the little known artist and etcher of architectural subjects, Hedley Fitton.
His own paintings are sometimes – although certainly not exclusively – of sporting subjects, and often feature boxing, snooker and other slightly disreputable sports.

Errol will be speaking as part of Ceri Levy‘s Ghosts of Gone Birds symposium.
