Welcome to Opus Malta, daughter of Opus, the luxury publishing house. Our mission is to produce definitive publications featuring the finest writers, stunning images displayed on an epic scale and presented in a beautifully-designed, luxury format.
“If history were taught in the form of stories, it would never be forgotten" - Rudyard Kipling
Opus Malta was established during the creation of The Malta Opus, a landmark publication celebrating the island. Opus Malta is born from the same spirit of excellence and storytelling that defines the global Opus brand, and is conceived to serve as a platform for Maltese narratives of significance, a natural evolution that ensures that the nation’s rich heritage is immortalised in the grand Opus format.
While The Malta Opus served as its cornerstone, Opus Malta’s vision extends beyond Malta's shores and will embrace and create international stories that resonate with the same values of excellence, creativity, and timeless relevance that define Opus. This makes Opus Malta a custodian of local heritage and a contributor to global storytelling, bridging Malta’s identity with the wider world through grand Opus narrative, photography and artistry.
Whether it is honouring football giants Manchester United FC, celebrating the work of fashion icon Vivienne Westwood or reviewing the fascinating history of The Saatchi Gallery, Opus promises to deliver the story of a subject in the most unique and cinematic way. The official cooperation of the governing body, company, club or individual associated with each Opus allows us to take you closer to the biggest names in sport, fashion, music and the arts than ever before.
Words are contributed by the finest writers and interviewers in their fields, accompanied by hundreds of rare and previously unpublished archive images, specially-commissioned photos and beautiful illustrations. Typically, an Opus also contains a number of showpiece gatefolds, which open up to a massive 200cm x 50cm, allowing images to be displayed on an unprecedented scale.
The use of special colour processes, the highest grade paper stocks,and our painstaking attention to detail in reproduction of pictures combine to ensure an unparalleled visual feast. Individually hand-bound and designed to stand the test of time, available in strictly limited edition print runs worldwide and personally signed by legends, every Opus is a collectors’ item offering investment potential and pleasure for generations to come.
