Inside Derek Jarman’s sketchbooks
Posted by Fabio 7 October 2013
To celebrate the publication of Derek Jarman’s Sketchbooks, publishers Thames & Hudson went to the BFI National Archive where archivist Nathalie Morris and authors Stephen Farthing and Ed Webb-Ingall gave them an exclusive talk about the beautifully produced handmade books that Derek Jarman created throughout his career.
The new book – Derek Jarman’s Sketchbooks – offers an intimate portrait of one of Britain’s most influential film-makers — a cult in his lifetime; a cult today.
