John Maltby (born 1936 in Lincolnshire) is a distinguished English sculptor and studio potter.〔(John Maltby - Biography & Works - Bircham Gallery )〕 John Maltby was brought up in Cleethorpes in Lincolnshire. He studied at Leicester College of Art and Goldsmith's College in South London.〔Watson Oliver, ''Studio Pottery'' Phaidon 1993, p.216〕 After a period of teaching art in a small private boys' school near London, where he met his future wife, Heather, he visited Bernard Leach after reading Leach's "A Potter's book". On Leach's advice Maltby joined his son David Leach in 1962 at Lowerdown Pottery in Bovey Tracey, Devon where he was Leach's apprentice for nearly two years. He then set up his own pottery at Stoneshill near Crediton in 1964.〔(John Maltby )〕 His work has been exhibited worldwide and is represented in many public collections including Victoria and Albert Museum.〔(oakwoodceramics: Catalogue, John Maltby )〕 == References == 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「John Maltby」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
