Derek Jarman: Delphinium Days w/ Co-curator Lisa Beauchamp: 7th June, 2024

Derek Jarman was a pioneering artist whose work was unapologetic and defiant.

The artist's place as an influential gay rights activist is cemented in his work that survives him.

30 years after Jarman passed away from complications relating to AIDS, his work will be exhibited in Aotearoa for the first time.

Derek Jarman: Delphinium Days co-curated by Lisa Beauchamp, Curator of Contemporary Art at Gus Fisher Gallery, City Gallery Wellington Senior Curator Aaron Lister, and Michael Lett opens at Gus Fisher Gallery on the 15th of June. 

Nicholas spoke to co-curator Lisa Beauchamp about the landmark exhibition.
