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.If they arctic conditions have signalled the onset of winter blues, then The Photographers Gallery might be just the place to get a fix of sun, sea and sand. Massimo Vitali photographs the Italians at play, by day on the beaches of
the coast of Tuscany and the lakes, and at night in the seething clubs of the Adriatic resorts. Vitali's skill is in putting such communal spaces in the spotlight and scrutinising the movements, patterns and groupings of the crowd. The artist is equally fascinated by the architecture and landscape his crowds inhabit. The beach shots (left), for example, are taken purposefully from a position in the sea so the people are seen in the context of the buildings behind.
