V roce 2012 se součástí Nakladatelství Slovart stalo nakladatelství Brio. Nakladatelství Brio vydávalo ve spolupráci s předními spisovateli a výtvarníky nádherně ilustrované originální příběhy a sbírky pohádek pro děti od šesti do dvanácti let. Pro starší děti, mládež a dospělé Brio nabízelo sebrané spisy pohádek a bajek od renomovaných spisovatelů, doplněné o to nejlepší z klasické literatury celého světa. V této tradici pokračujeme také my v rámci stejnojmenné edice.

About the book
David Bailey is one of the most famous fashion photographers of the
twentieth century, part of a new generation who revolutionised the
medium in the 1960s and made stars of models such as Jean Shrimpton and
Penelope Tree. He was among the first photographers to become a
celebrity in his own right, socialising with and photographing many of
the cultural icons of the period, such as Catherine Deneuve, The
Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Michael Caine and Andy Warhol. He has held
contracts with British, American and Italian Vogue and contributed to
many other major magazines and newspapers. His simple and direct style
is accompanied by an intimacy that reveals the personality and sexuality
of his subjects. Over the course of his successful career Bailey has
produced books, paintings, commercials, documentaries and feature films
and remains a high profile figure in photography and filmmaking. This
book delves into the photographer's archive and provides an engaging
overview of his career, including early and previously unpublished work
alongside his iconic portraits from the 'Swinging Sixties'.
