Encyclopedia
Stuart Bailey is a graphic designer and co-editor of Dot Dot Dot
with David Reinfurt ( earlier together with Peter Bilak
). He has lived and worked in Amsterdam and is now based in New York. http://www.underconsideration.com/speakup/interviews/bailey.html
According to online resource Typotheque http://www.typotheque.com/site/index.php, Bailey was born in York, UK in 1973 and studied typography
and graphic communication
at the University of Reading
. http://www.typotheque.com/site/author.php?id=58 Bailey was one of the first participants to study at the Werkplaats Typografie (typographic workshop) in Arnhem
, a postgraduate program headed by designer Karel Martens.
In a 2006 interview with Speak Up http://www.underconsideration.com/speakup/, Bailey explained: "I suspect what I’m really against is what that term “graphic design” has come to represent, i.e. synonymous with business cards, logos, identities and advertising, and, again simply put, those are things I’m just not interested in. To me that idea of “graphic design” is as far removed from my interests as being a milkman or a lawyer. In fact, I’d rather be a milkman." This led to a protest by Dick Smith, leader of the Association of Milkmen of North Yorkshire, who was quoted in the York Evening News as saying ‘Bailey’s words bring disrespect upon our noble industry’.http://www.underconsideration.com/speakup/interviews/bailey.html
