Nestled just east of Cleveland, Ohio, Rowdy Meadow Sculpture Park is a visionary project commissioned by American arts patron Scott Mueller. Spanning 150 acres of former apple orchards, lush woodlands, and meadows, this private park is home to an extraordinary collection of over sixty outdoor works by leading contemporary artists.

Visitors to Rowdy Meadow traverse an extensive network of trails that lead them to masterpieces by names such as Andy Goldsworthy, Ai Weiwei, and Richard Serra. Each piece interacts with the landscape, creating a striking dialogue between art and nature.

The park has been designed by the innovative landscape architecture firm Reed Hildebrand, ensuring that the natural beauty of the grounds complements the artwork seamlessly. This careful planning allows visitors to experience the unique interplay between art and ecology in a truly immersive setting.

Accompanying the stunning visuals are more than forty specially commissioned interviews with the artists. These insightful texts offer readers a deeper understanding of each artist's practice and the context of their work within the park.

Ultimately, Mueller’s world-class collection is destined to bequeathed to the Cleveland Museum of Art, but until then, visitors and readers alike can enjoy the exclusive access that Rowdy Meadow provides.
