"And we distinguished Empire from Baroque, as you at this age - ate from pine trees", - wrote the poet, as if apologizing. Ippolitov does not apologize, he is an art historian, he is supposed to. He does his job: he talks about art - and so engagingly that it becomes clear where the current museum boom, for example, or the architectural walks that have suddenly become wildly popular, came from. Whatever the specific occasion on which he writes, it turns out very convincing, beautiful and meaningful. Very subtle and clever. And one wants to join him immediately, greasing his heels and running to the museum.... I want to look at the world through his eyes. "And the world will appear strange again, wrapped in a colored fog." And he achieves this with words. In the era of total smartphone visuality, you suddenly realize how much you long for the word, how much you lack the word, but in the beginning there was a word.... In spite of the fact that he is an art historian and writes about the visual. Reading him is a pleasure, somewhat forgotten: belles lettres, pure and simple.
