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.

A star is dead.
A legend is born.
When death strikes unexpectedly and unfulfilled potential is nipped in the bud, that’s when myths are made. This stunningly illustrated book brings a tribute to the lives and work of more than 100 international 20th century celebrities who went before their time. From Judy Garland, Keith Haring and Eva Perón to James Dean, Florence Griffith and JFK… all the monarchs, politicians, activists, entertainers, artists and sportsmen in this book had two things in common: they inspired multiple nations during their lives and attained immortality by dying too soon.
Presented alphabetically with one to four
pages devoted to each selected celebrity, combining 160 iconic images with
descriptive texts
A spectacular visual biography of the lives
and careers of more than 100 of the most colourful, significant and
inspiring artists, politicians, entertainers and activists of the 20th
century
Focus on those celebrities
who defined an era in life, have proven to remain valuable today and will
still be talked about long after tomorrow
A must-have for any pop culture enthusiast
