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.Ian Jones and Colin Smith (Barbican Concourse Gallery, 071-638 4141, to 23 May). Big pictures by two of our best painters. The self-mocking Jones looks at the world through his new car, finding grim humour. Smith concentrates on interiors, finding more awful things as he peers into his wardrobe.
Paintings from the Bowes Museum (National Gallery, 071-839 3321, to 20 June). Another show from a temporarily closed museum, featuring El Greco, Boucher, Goya and Courbet. In the Sunley Room, so admission free.
Classics from the Collection (Ben Uri Gallery, 071-437 2852, Tues to 22 May). Rare chance to see historic Jewish pictures from the gallery's holdings. Works by Simeon Solomon, Gertler, Bomberg, Epstein, etc. Look out for the Germans Max Liebermann and Ludwig Meidner.
