Launched in January this year by Film London, More4 and the Serpentine Gallery, the Jarman Award seeks to award artist filmmakers who create their art in the spirit of the late Derek Jarman. The award coincides with a season of screenings of the filmmaker’s work on More4 (Channel 4′s digital arts and documentary channel), the Serpentine Gallery’s new exhibition on his work, a screening of his Super-8 films at the Tate Britain, and the UK premiere of Isaac Julian’s film biopic, entitled Derek.
‘Derek Jarman curated by Isaac Julien’ will be on display at the Serpentine Gallery from 23 February – 13 April 2008.
Visit the gallery’s website for more details.
