Money and Dreams : Counting the Last Days of the Sigmund Freud Banknote

Rainer Ganahl, Paul Mattic, Sylère Lotringer

description

Artist's book by Rainer Ganahl documenting his 'THE LAST DAYS OF THE SIGMUND FREUD BANKNOTE' cycle of work. Texts by Ganahl, Paul Mattic, Sylère Lotringer. "From August 2001 to February 2002, Ganahl created a series of drawings entitled THE LAST DAYS OF THE SIGMUND FREUD BANKNOTE. This series is in reference to the introduction of the Euro as the new Austrian currency and the discontinuance of the Austrian 50 Schilling banknote, which bears a portrait of Sigmund Freud. In consideration of Freud's importance for dream analysis, Ganahl recorded his dreams each morning until February 28, 2002, when the Schilling ceased to be a legal tender in Austria." -- from book's back cover.
