The Belcourt show has got some good reviews the Nashville seen wrote it up and had it named crittues choice of the week,
"Ruralists Collective Including painters from Tennessee, Texas and Alabama, the Ruralists Collective combines an academic understanding of contemporary art with a folk aesthetic to create a largely narrative body of work that draws from Americana, frontier mythology, rural iconography and agricultural traditions. The collective comes to the Belcourt Theatre lobby through founding member Harry, a local painter whose work has been finding its way into the hands of new collectors via shows at The Art House and Plowhaus alike. Including work by Franne Lee and Merrilee Challis, the shows highlight is the bizarre and brutal body of work by Texas painter Chicken George, whose mythic pieces are populated by snakes, goats and roosters and seem to be torn from a childrens book your parents wisely kept out of reach. An opening reception takes place on 6 p.m. Friday, Aug. 4. JOE NOLAN"
