    About the book: 2020 / Many years have passed since the events discussed in this book. And, at first glance, the events of that cold February 1917 have little to do with our modern life, because, for example, I was born after the collapse of the USSR, and therefore in a completely different country. And I didn’t see the Tsar, even from afar, and my mother didn’t see him, and what’s more, even my grandmother (can you imagine how long ago that was?) What kind of life do we have before this revolution, with our iPhones, mortgages and trips to mega-malls? case? Part of the answer lies in the very title of my book - “Homo revolution” - translated from Latin this means “revolutionary man”. In short, this book is about how art created the New Man. Or, to put it very briefly – about Man. The same as you and me. With his difficulties, turning points in consciousness and faith, in the bright future that certainly awaits him.
