The U.S. Census Bureau defines "rural" as "any population, housing, or territory NOT in an urban area." At the most basic level, then, the rural is defined by what it is not. The definition comes with real consequences for rural places in the U.S., which receive disproportionately less government and philanthropic aid despite the extent to which their natural resources (primarily oil, gas, coal, and water) power the American economy. Yet just as visual culture is partially responsible for myths about rural places, several examples of contemporary art work to dispel them, reframing understandings of both the rural and the rural-urban dichotomy. This paper argues that socially engaged art in rural parts of the United States rejects an extractive mindset, challenges universalist climate narratives, and counters the romanticization and marginalization of rural America. By examining the work of the Beehive Design Collective, Art of the Rural, the Plains Art Museum, and the Anthropocene Drift initiative, I demonstrate how these projects work to build alternative, more ethical socioecological relations that critically foreground extractive histories of land use and draw on experiential, place-based knowledge.
