**Maddalena Tibertelli de Pisis** will analyse ‘The Poetry of Images: the Life of Filippo de Pisis to the Present Day’, through a focus on the stages in his life and the evolution of his painting.
**Massimo Tantardini** will talk about the ‘de Pisis crossover’, interpreting the artist's phenomenological painting with forays into other disciplines.
**Mauro Zanchi** will present a reading entitled ‘de Pisis and the paradoxes of disproportion’, analysing those Depisisian objects that, in their imbalance with reality, become indicators and cues for space-time journeys and unexpected perpectives in his ways of painting – or rather of understanding – things.
