Ailerons and fuselage. \nTheir hollow bones will be broken and poisoned by beasts created in thei r image.” \n                                                                                                               -Campbell McLean \n  \nCampbell McLean explores her queer-American experience by creating caricaturist paintings\, objects\, installations\, and videos. From oil on canvas\, papier-mâché to found object\, McLean ’s unique aesthetic approach shines through in her sporadic ‘make-due ’ energy that flows seamlessly between 2D and 3D forms. The resulting wo rks are immersive and modular series and installations that read as both s pecific and universalizing\, personal and relatable. \n  \nIn War-Birds & Adverts\, the artist’s installation for the 301 Frame Gallery\, McLean incorporates themes of patriotism\, camp\, nostalgia\, and caricature as a generalized and vague criticism of the time and space we are living in no w. Campbell’s use of humor and the appropriation of a thinly veiled spec tacle\, seek to critique a multitude of cultural and contemporary concerns \, including\, isolation\, screen time\, self-commodification\, sloganeeri ng\, sex\, death\, war\, ‘the art market’. As McLean comments\, “Can I really not talk about that terrible ‘thing’ at an institutional gal lery?” How are the birds doing? Didn’t you hear?! It’s all for sale! Call my gallerist! 978 495 6697. \n  \nCampbell-Lynn McLean is a Boston- based artist and a 2022 graduate from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design (MassArt) BFA program. McLean is currently pursuing her MFA in pai nting at Boston University\, Class of 2027. She has received numerous awar ds and scholarships in recognition of her works\, including the Stephen D. Paine Scholarship in 2021\, the George Nick Award in 2022\, and the Josep h Ablow Memorial Prize in 2026. Since 2024\, she has presented a solo exhi bition\, included in three group exhibitions\, and two art fairs with LaiS un Keane\, Boston\, MA.

They w ere brought together by Sendak\, who wanted an occasional break from worki ng long hours in his studio on such projects as the illustrations and sets for the opera Brundibar. He gave Jonathan Weinberg the task of forming th e drawing group. \nAt the time\, Weinberg\, who is both a painter and an a rt historian\, and his husband\, Nick Boshnack\, lived next door to Sendak in a house Sendak owned. This house\, where these first drawing sessions took place\, was affectionately known as “the Nut House\,” not because of the mental capacity of its inhabitants\, but because squirrels frequen tly dropped acorns on its roof. Weinberg invited Marc McChesney\, a young local artist whom he had briefly mentored\, to join the group. Marc\, in turn\, suggested that his best friend\, the illustrator Jamison Odone\, c ome to draw with them as well. The quartet was augmented by Herman\, Maur ice Sendak’s enormous and beautiful German shepherd\, who provided emoti onal support. \nThe paintings\, drawings\, and posters in the exhibition p rovide a sense not only of what the work of the drawing sessions was like\ , but also an introduction to the art the four artists made in the years b efore\, during\, and after the Nut House days. \nSunday at the Nut House w as originally conceived and organized by participating artists Jonathan We inberg and Jamison Odone in 2025 for the Stephanie Ann Roper Gallery at Fr ostburg State University.

Each session features a work of art or object that is new to view—whether a recent acquisition or a work newly installed in the galleries. \nThe program begins in the E ducation Room at our Downtown Campus with a brief introduction and visual context before moving into the galleries for an extended exploration of th e featured work. Guided by observation\, curiosity\, and conversation\, pa rticipants are encouraged to share ideas\, consider different perspectives \, and discover new connections together. \nThis week for Artful Conversat ions \nIn 2025\, CAM acquired two 2023 photographs by Matika Wilbur as par t of the Museum’s Native Initiatives\, a project that culminated in a la ndmark exhibition of Wilbur’s work at the CAM Green. Wilbur’s work res hapes how Indigenous Peoples are represented across the United States\, ce ntering contemporary Native identity and celebrating the vibrancy of Indig enous culture today. \nPlease join CAM docent Maggie Rosa for an engaging conversation as she reflects on what these photographs reveal—about the photographer\, about the individuals portrayed\, and about the evolving st ories they invite us to understand more deeply. \nBorn and raised in Engla nd\, Maggie Rosa moved to the Chicago in 1968 to work as a research techni cian at the University of Chicago. During her eight years in Chicago\, she married Joe and obtained her PhD. The two of them did post-doctoral resea rch at Yale and then moved to Cambridge to join the nascent biotech world. They eventually built a weekend home in Gloucester. In 2001 they “saw t he light” and moved here permanently to participate in this great commun ity. Maggie is an active volunteer in local organizations\, most recently the City Hall Restoration Commission\, Gloucester Education Foundation\, C ape Ann Museum\, and Generous Gardeners. As a Cape Ann Museum docent\, she serves as an ambassador for Gloucester by introducing visitors\, especial ly cruise ship visitors\, to Cape Ann’s history and culture. CAM’s Fre snel lighthouse lens is her favorite piece in the Museum because it exempl ifies how science\, technology and art were combined to address an urgent need in maritime safety.
