"When Miguel Calderon's grandfather died he left Calderon a box of unexplained images, photographs and newspaper cut-outs of a man with various women.

Galleria In Arco, Torino, 1990. paperback. fine. Disegni a matita e pastello, 1989-90. Testi di Vettor Pisani e Mimma Pisani. Una favola rosacroce ha per protagonista una bambina apprendista maga che maldestramente trasforma il fratellino in coniglietto. La vicenda si risolve in un lungo viaggio alla ricerca della parola magica che possa far tornare umano il fratellino. Questa fiaba, eccezionalmente nella storia dell'arte, fa da contenitore paradossale e segnavia di forme e parole a tutto il lavoro di Pisani e, in modo particolare, procede o intercede con i disegni. Disegni che, affiancati all'invenzione letteraria, ne tesaurizzano sconcerti e illuminazioni.
