This pocket-size tome presents a highly evocative series of talismans and symbolic artifacts with extraordinary evocative power. Barbara Brondi & Marco Rainò asked young but already established designers from around the world to design innovative talismans—symbols, vehicles of meaning, objects that embody individual and collective values. Talisman showcases this series of empathetic objects made of different materials and interesting shapes.

Curators Barbara Brondi & Marco Rainò are architects, interested in experimenting through the project, theoretical research and critical commitment in the fields of architecture, graphics and contemporary design.
