There have been previous books on the Cleveland Museum of Art published by Scala, but this is the first to explore the gardens surrounding the museum. The Cleveland Museum of Art is located in a parklike setting with other cultural and educational institutions. Built on land given by one of the museum's major donors, the museum opened to the public in 1916. The foreground of this majestic white marble structure, however, was a long-neglected parcel of land with a small lake owned by the City of Cleveland. In the 1920s the Garden Club of Cleveland took on the job of transforming this blighted plot into a garden everyone could enjoy. Mary Hoerner presents the history of the Fine Arts Garden, and Jeffrey Strean discusses the development of the museum's grounds since the 1930s as well as plans for the future. This lavishly illustrated and beautifully designed book presents a new aspect of the history of a distinguished institution.

Lavishly illustrated and loaded with stellar examples of helmets, shields, swords, crossbows, firearms, and more from the magnificent collection of the Cleveland Museum of Art, this volume traces the history of European arms and armor from antiquity through the 18th century. Published to celebrate the recent refurbishment of the museum's popular Armor Court, Arms & Armor explores such themes as medieval warfare, tournaments, the process of making and decorating armor, and the Renaissance culture of arms. It also provides a discussion of various forms of weapons. The museum's finest works -- all newly restored -- were specially photographed for the book's large colorplates and searching details. In addition, paintings, tapestries, and engravings show how the objects were used and worn.

Linking two influential figures in American art, this fascinating catalogue explores the intersection between works by modern master Robert Rauschenberg (1925-2008) and innovative contemporary artist Rachel Harrison (b. 1966). Taking its name from Gloria, an iconic Rauschenberg work in the collection of the Cleveland Museum of Art, the book covers multiple aspects of Harrison's career thus far, and uses her work as a lens to explore the lasting influence of Rauschenberg. Two essays underline the reason for this pairing: one, by Beau Rutland, takes a thematic approach to the interplay between Rauschenberg's and Harrison's practices; the other, by Johanna Burton, presents a more nuanced look at Harrison's oeuvre. Harrison herself debuts new digital collages created specifically for this publication. The first book to compare Rauschenberg and Harrison, Rachel Harrison: G-L-O-R-I-A brings a completely new perspective to these well-known subjects.
