Commissioned by American arts patron Scott Mueller, Rowdy Meadow is an innovative sculpture park in Hunting Valley, east of Cleveland, Ohio

the very landscape that surrounds Mueller s visionary Czech Cubism-inspired house. Set in a 150-acre property of former apple orchards, steep woodlands, meadows, and ravines, Rowdy Meadow is an exemplary sculpture park, born from Mueller s love of art and nature.

The extensive network of trails through forest and meadows unveils an extraordinary assortment of contemporary sculpture

currently more than sixty outdoor works by forty-five artists

made possible by Mueller s prominent collection, Reed Hilderbrand s landscape architecture, and site-specific commissions. The park boasts a variety of works from major artists such as Elmgreen & Dragset, Andy Goldsworthy, Michael Heizer, Anish Kapoor, Sol LeWitt, Richard Serra, James Turrell, and Ai Weiwei, as well as an underground bunker for an installation by Jonah Freeman and Justin Lowe.

This publication, the first on the sculpture park, captures the stunning and extensive sculpture-focused collection that makes up Rowdy Meadow, and how the art communicates with and enhances the natural land.
