• From Peter Dreher's best-known series of works, “Tag um Tag guter Tag” (Day after day, good day).
• Starting in 1972, the artist painted an empty water glass (in original size) on a white tabletop at regular intervals.
• “Day after Day, Good Day” thus manifests a unique perspective in contemporary painting, in which simplicity, repetition, and everyday life are at the forefront.
• Other paintings from this important series of works can be found in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, Frankfurt am Main, and the Staatliche Kunsthalle, Karlsruhe, among others
.
