Art absolut secret
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.It's time once again for the Royal College of Art's annual guessing game: "Absolut Secret". This is the show of a thousand or so postcards, all painted anonymously, all for sale for pounds 30 and which might or might not turn out to be by a famous hand. You simply pays your money and hopes that your eye is on form. It's not as easy as it sounds. Looking at 1,000 little pictures is an oddly hypnotic and disorientating experience and after a few minutes either everything or nothing looks like it might be by Frank Auerbach or Chris Ofili. One of them will be - but hundreds won't.
Royal College of Art, London SW7 (0171-590 4444). Selling will take place from 8am Thur - Sun 6 Dec
