Helping in Katrina's Aftermath

The devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina has deeply affected our entire nation. To support disaster relief efforts, Northern Trust has made a direct corporate contribution to the American Red Cross and other local relief organizations in areas sheltering those displaced. Additionally, we have been matching dollar-for-dollar every gift our employees make to the American Red Cross in the wake of this tragedy.

We continue to reach out to our affected clients, lending whatever support we can give. And we are conducting employee donation drives based on the supply needs expressed by the American Red Cross.

We understand many of our clients and friends would like to contribute to Hurricane Katrina relief efforts as well. To donate directly to the American Red Cross, please visit www.redcross.org or call 1-800-HELP-NOW. To donate to other organizations, please visit www.give.org or call the BBB Wise Giving Alliance at 703-276-0100 to check out the charity you are considering.

Northern Trust to Sponsor Andy Warhol/Supernova Exhibition

Northern Trust has become the National Sponsor of the upcoming exhibition, Andy Warhol/Supernova, premiering November 13, 2005, at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis.

Andy Warhol/Supernova will bring together more than 20 examples of the artist’s early silkscreen paintings juxtaposing his iconic serial images of Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor and Elvis Presley with the artist’s evocative and at times disturbing appropriations of car crashes, electric chairs and other disasters. Focusing exclusively on the period between 1962 and 1964, the exhibition takes as its starting point the moment in Warhol’s career when he shifted his practice from handpainting to mechanical reproductions of silkscreens.

After its debut in Minneapolis, where it runs until February 26, 2006, the exhibition travels to the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago (March 18–June 18, 2006) and the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto (July 8–October 1, 2006).
