Derek Jarman (1942—1994), when he is remembered, is remembered as a film-maker, and secondarily, a gay activist. His films, including Jubilee (1978), Caravaggio (1986), Edward II (1991) and Blue (1993), were not made within the commercial film-studiosystem (which he came to hate). He was introduced to film as a serious artistic pursuit when he was an art student by a film studies course at the Slade School of Fine Art. The introduction was thus not to mainstream commercial cinema. Yet Jarman disliked being classified as a special interest or art film director. From the 1950s until his death he was also a painter, making, among many other paintings, various series: a series of landscapes (1967), the Avebury series (1973) the Black and Broken Glassseries (1980—1987), the Caravaggio Suite (1986), the GBH series (1984), the Queer series (1992) and the Evil Queen series (1993). Ironically, perhaps, film eventually took him away from being a painter by squeezing his available time.1

机译：记得德里克·贾曼（Derek Jarman，1942-1994年）时，他是电影制片人，其次是同性恋活动家。他的电影，包括《禧年》（1978年），《卡拉瓦乔》（1986年），《爱德华二世》（1991年）和《蓝》（1993年），都不属于商业电影制片厂制（他很讨厌）。当他还是斯莱德美术学院电影研究课程的艺术学生时，就被介绍给电影，这是一种严肃的艺术追求。因此，介绍不是针对主流商业电影。然而，贾曼（Jarman）不喜欢被归类为特殊兴趣或艺术电影导演。从1950年代直到他去世，他还是画家，除其他画作外，还创作了各种系列作品：一系列风景画（1967），Avebury系列画作（1973），Black and Broken Glassseries（1980-1987）和Caravaggio Suite （1986），GBH系列（1984），Queer系列（1992）和Evil Queen系列（1993）。具有讽刺意味的是，也许电影通过挤压他的可用时间最终使他脱离了画家的角色。1
