SAN FRANCISCO — Harman Projects is pleased to announce Extinction Stories, a solo exhibition of new paintings by Los Angeles-based artist Scott Listfield. Known for his long-running series of narrative paintings featuring his trademark Astronaut protagonist, Listfield once again delivers a biting, dystopian vision of our near future. Extinction Stories opens August 2nd at Harman Projects in San Francisco, marking the artist’s return to the city since his last exhibition in 2018.
Set in a fractured landscape where the remnants of 21st-century consumerism have outlasted the customers they once served, Listfield’s work depicts his iconic avatar navigating the now-forgotten tech utopia of the Bay Area. A crumbling Twitter bird sculpture sits derelict and abandoned, while across town a shattered Golden Gate Bridge crumbles before impending cosmic destruction. These are not post-human fantasies, but elegies for a world that tried, and failed, to innovate its way out of extinction.
Listfield’s solitary explorer serves as a silent observer of technological excess, climate disaster, and the slowmotion unraveling of society. The paintings in Extinction Stories are underscored by the artist’s characteristically deadpan humor as he draws from the aesthetics of retro-futurism, sci-fi cinema, and meme culture. Echoes of Giorgio de Chirico (Gare Montparnasse, 1914) and Edward Ruscha (Los Angeles County Museum of Art on Fire 1965–68) reverberate through the work, reinforcing Listfield's vision as being as universal and timeless as the very worlds he creates.
Extinction Stories opens on Saturday, August 2nd with a reception from 5 pm - 7 pm. For additional information, images, and feature interview content, email us at sf@harmanprojects.com.
