Locked In - the life of Keith Vaughan. Adapted from his diaries by Peter Scott-Presland. Keith Vaughan was one of the most important British painters of the mid-20th Century, and friend of Francis Bacon, Graham Sutherland, David Hockney, John Minton etc. His subject matter was defiantly gay - bathers, lovers - in a style that became increasingly abstract. Behind his success was a man of intense sensitivity, fierce doubts, caustic humour, anger and fear of ageing. An intense romantic, he couldn't allow himself to give way to his feelings in life. So he poured them all out in one of the funniest, sexiest, most vivid journals ever written - a journal he kept for forty years. Scott-Presland's show focuses on three main periods of Vaughan's life
