Caravaggio (1986)
Directed by Derek Jarman
Duration: 93 minutes
Thursday 17 March, 6.30pm
Caravaggio is a fictional re-telling of the life of Baroque painter Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio directed by visionary filmmaker, writer and gay rights activist Derek Jarman. Thematically, it explores the tortured plight of the artist, homosexual love and the hypocrisy of religious authority. It was the first of Jarman’s collaborations with Tilda Swinton, who would go on to star in six more of his films.
Our current exhibiting artists Larry Achiampong and Michelle Williams Gamaker have both been recognised by The Film London Jarman Award, which honours Derek Jarman.
