Samenvatting:

TOTEM AND TABOO thematises the problems of separation and transference that create a discrete confusion in the relations between art and design. The reference to Freud pays homage in the guise of a metaphor. Beyond the hype surrounding DesignArt and Critical Design, the dialogue between designers and artists is infinitely complex and intriguing. Belgian design historian Max Borka introduces the reader in a multitude of aspects and objects.
