Film Screening: Derek Jarman’s Blue’ (1993) in Honor of World AIDS Day

Sunday, Nov 30, 2025
1:30 pm — 3:00 pm

In honor of World AIDS Day, GRAM invites you to join us for a screening of Derek Jarman’s extraordinary experimental film BLUE (1993).

In his final — and most daring — cinematic statement, Derek Jarman the romantic meets Derek Jarman the iconoclast in a lush soundscape pulsing against a purely blue screen. Laying bare Jarman’s physical and spiritual state in a narration about his life, his struggle with AIDS and his encroaching blindness, BLUE is by turns poignant, amusing, poetic and philosophical.

This event is included with museum admission.
