He examines Jarman's filming techniques and way of\u003cbr\u003e working and also analyses influences from the fields of painting and literature, such as\u003cbr\u003e Allen Ginsberg, Robert Rauschenberg, David Hockney and Yves Klein.\u003cbr\u003e For Jarman, life and work represented an indivisible unity. Numerous autobiographical\u003cbr\u003e elements from his works are thus considered in this volume: his repressed childhood and\u003cbr\u003e adolescence in post-war England, his coming out and the liberated life of the seventies, \u003cbr\u003e his struggle against the unequal treatment of homosexuals during the Thatcher era, his\u003cbr\u003e dealing with his own HIV infection and finally his personal commitment to fighting\u003cbr\u003e discrimination against people who are HIV-positive or who have already developed Aids.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ewww.jarman-film-book.com\/\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrey, Martin:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - www.martinfrey.at Freelance work in the areas of graphic design, project development and urban photography.
