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.

Your support makes all the difference.

THIS, THE first London exhibition for several years of work by Craigie Aitchison, shows that he has lost none of the charm that has made him that rare thing - a painter whose work is both publicly popular and well respected by his peers. Deservedly so on both counts. His most recent work is at the Timothy Taylor Gallery, with a selection of earlier creations at Waddington's.

Craigie Aitchison, Timothy Taylor Gallery, 1 Bruton Place, London W1 (0171-409 3344); Waddington Galleries, 34 Cork Street, London W1 (0171- 437 8611) to 19 Dec

Following the success of their Lucian Freud exhibition in 1996, the Abbot Hall Gallery are continuing to host important shows of contemporary art. From today you can see one of the most comprehensive retrospectives of work by Bridget Riley (above) ever staged, with over 40 well-selected works from 1961-1998.

Bridget Riley, Abbot Hall Art Gallery, Kendall, Cumbria (01539 722464) to 31 Jan
