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.Recognised as one of Africa's most powerful contemporary artists, El Anatsui brings the fruit of his chainsaw to the October Gallery from 14 May.
HIs work, fashioned from mahogany, afara and iroko, dwells on the history of the African continent, drawing simultaneously on traditional African idioms and contemporary western art to straddle a range of aesthetic sensibilities. The exhibition coincides with the publication of the first book dedicated to the artist's work.
October Gallery, 24 Old Gloucester St, London WC1 (0171-242 7367) 14 May to 20 Jun
