For over 40 years, Scala has worked with the world’s leading arts and heritage organisations to widen cultural knowledge and appreciation, producing an ever-expanding range of publications from pocket-sized guidebooks to sumptuous illustrated catalogues.

Our range of genres and international reach continue to flourish, while our standards of design and production remain as high as ever, as does the calibre of our institution partnerships.

This year we welcome many new clients to the Scala family–National Museum of Afghanistan, Handel Hendrix London, Manchester Museum, Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin and the Rubin Museum of Art–as well as continued collaborations with Louvre Abu Dhabi, Eurus Collection in Seoul, National Museum Sultanate of Oman, the Science Museum, London, Sydney Opera House, the John & Mable Ringling Museum of Art, Crocker Art Museum, the Patricia & Phillip Frost Art Museum, Eskenazi Museum of Art, Meadows Museum, Loeb Art Center, St Paul’s Cathedral, Hereford Cathedral and St Alban’s Cathedral.

New books in our series include a sumptuous title on Orchids in our Botanic Garden list from the Marie Selby Botanic Gardens in Florida, another extraordinary title in our Great Library series from the National Library of Israel and a stunning addition to our Performing Arts list with a profile of British-Argentinian principal ballet dancer – Marianela Núñez.

St Catherine’s College, Cambridge joins our Schools and Colleges titles, and we have five exciting additions to our popular Director’s Choice series. The Royal Collection Trust’s book on the Kings & Queens of England is a jewel in our children’s list, and, following the success of The Story of Babur, we have more children’s titles promoting the cultural heritage of the Republic of Uzbekistan.

All these additions complement Scala’s rich collection of titles on the art, history and architecture of the world’s cultural institutions, and I hope you enjoy them.
