Michael Taylor is a young artist who is causing a stir in contemporary South African art. Over the past ten years he has rapidly progressed from a talented student to a highly successful artist and lecturer. A collection of his latest works,  sporting a decidedly personal flair, will soon be on show at the Worldart Gallery in Cape Town’s Church Street. This small but enterprising gallery is steadily becoming a hot spot, drawing a keen following of international clients who are au fait with current trends on the arts scene.

Taylor is fond of exploring the space between text and image. His often humorous works, touching on both the art of illustration, graphic design and figurative work, display qualities that attract the more established as well as the younger art aficionados. He has in fact already become a firm favourite among the younger collectors.
