Hearts beat faster as actress ‘Little’ Nell Campbell and Adam Ant share an intimate moment at a Butler's Wharf party in 1977, as captured by young photograper & member of the Bromley Contingent, Simon Barker.
The loft studio artist and sculptor Andrew Logan kept at Butler’s Wharf next to Tower Bridge was the site of legendary London avant-garde events like the anarchic Alternative Miss World contest in 1975 or the Valentine's Day ball in which the Sex Pistols played in 1976 and after influential artist Derek Jarman moved in the block as a neighbour, a thriving artist community renowned for throwing parties begins to form at Butler’s Wharf. In 1978 Derek Jarman directed the cult punk film “Jubilee” with numerous underground & punk icons including Adam Ant and Nell Campbell, already known at the time for her role in the legendary ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show’.
“...Derek [Jarman] could really thow a party. Since his death he is remembered for his films, his painting, his writing, his set design and sometimes even his gay rights political actions. No one ever mentions his great parties. The ones I went to were at his loft studio in Butler’s Wharf overlooking Tower Bridge. There was never anyone on the door, infact the door was usually wide open.
If you knew about the party, you got in...

happy magnus archives 2 to chaos grandpas who have ever threatened to throw an office worker off a rollercoaster, podcasters unable to feel fear, goths who suck at dyeing their own hair, old ladies who are also stone cold bitches, astronauts having a crisis about how big the universe is, fire messiahs who just want one large black coffee with room for cream, dudes who just learn to live with the spooky coffin that was deposited into their home, book collecting dust eating old rat bastard avatars of the whore, cops who watched their partner walk down stone stairs that shouldn’t exist, big guys with three hearts, women who lock themselves in a research station with an impossible dark sun, and tragic lovers whose story might not be over
