PICK OF THE WEEK
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Just what was it that made the Dutch so good at painting flowers? Here's your chance to find out in a hypnotically seductive demonstration of 50 ways to paint a petal. Velvety visions by Breughel, Bosschaert, de Heem, van Huysum, Seghers and others.

John Piper
A rare exhibition of the work of this often under-estimated British neo- romantic. Early works in oil and water-colour: churches, landscapes and decaying country houses.
Spink, King St, St James's, SW1 (O171-930 7868). Tomorrow to 31 July.
Jonathan Parsons
The name is not yet as familiar as that of Hirst, but on this evidence, it will not be long before Mr Saatchi is buying wholesale. Everything you would expect from a young turk of British conceptualism - and then some. Paintings, sculpture and mixed-media, including soft cushion road signs and a road map of Britain in a perspex box.
Richard Salmon, Studio 4, 59 Edwardes Sq, W5.(0171-602 9494). To 23 July
