The Independent Recommends: Art
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 EXHIBITION is the most interesting of the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art's recent reappraisals of the so-called Edinburgh school. John Maxwell was a whimsical artist and a bit of a symbolist, but one whose best work was deeply felt and often beautifully realised. He destroyed all but 200 of his life's works, roughly half of which are gathered together for this, the first proper showing of his work in more than 35 years.
John Maxwell, Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Belford Road, Edinburgh (0131-556 8921) to 14 Feb
