Among the great strengths of Michael Charlesworth’s richly detailed and strikingly original study is the illuminating manner in which it weaves together discussion of Derek Jarman’s cinema, painting, writing, landscape design, activism and other arts, exploring to great effect how each is so intimately linked with the others. * John Wyver, Professor of the Arts on Screen, University of Westminster, UK * A sensitive and far-reaching analysis of the multiple practices that sustained Derek Jarman’s extraordinary career. Michael Charlesworth brings to life not just the work but the contexts that inspired and shaped Jarman’s work. An engrossing read which deftly combines the insights of history, art history and philosophy. * Philippa Levine, Global Professorial Fellow, Queen Mary University of London, UK * Compassionate and insightful … Derek Jarman's Visionary Arts illuminates many facets of this brilliant artist. -- Nancy Campbell * Times Literary Supplement *
