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. Each drawing contains one 50 Schilling note, the dream and
its associations, as well as the daily recorded value of the 50
Schilling banknote in different currencies and the number of books on
sale at major online booksellers, Amazon.com and Buecher.de.
