Scott Listfield’s “The Lost World.”
Opening Thursday, September 29th, 2022 at Talon Gallery in Portland, Oregon is artist Scott Listfield’s extraordinary solo exhibition, “The Lost World.”
Of the exhibition, Scott writes:
“My name is Scott Listfield. I paint astronauts and, sometimes, dinosaurs. That's been the opening line of my artist statement since I first started painting astronauts, a long time ago now. In more recent years, some internet person will occasionally pop up to comment “Hey! What ever happened to the 'sometimes dinosaurs'?” Well, random internet person, this next show is for you.
I've found myself thinking about dinosaurs lately. I've been watching, over and over again, the incredible new documentary series Prehistoric Planet, on Apple TV, narrated by David Attenborough. I've also been thinking, not for the first time, about dinosaurs as a metaphor, during a time when we seem increasingly driven to follow in their large footsteps towards extinction. And during a time when certain political factions seem intent on sending us back in time to the stone age. I want to remember a simpler time in my life, when I could sit and draw dinosaurs for hours and then go dig a large hole in my backyard because I thought maybe there might be a Stegosaurus down there somewhere (there wasn't). And so I made an entire show of dinosaur paintings.”

Well, I'm just a modern guy.
Of course I've had it in the ear before.
Here's another one from AM Gold, my latest show, about music and time travel, which is up through April 29th at Harman Projects in New York. This one's an important one for me in a number of ways, but it's especially relevant TODAY because I'm going to go see Iggy Pop perform tonight for the very first time. Let's be honest, I don't know how much longer this beloved and shirtless and leathery icon is going to be around, so I'm excited to catch him while he's still upright and mobile. I'm hoping it will be a great show, but either way, it will be really cool for me to look back at my life one day and say: I saw Iggy Pop perform and didn't get spit on.
OK, I'm being presumptuous about the spit part. Fingers crossed.

This is the latest completed puzzle. It's called Rainbow One From Genuine Fred. The Artist is Scott Listfield.
This was really hard for me since I don't have great lighting. I mean, I have great lighting for sewing, not for puzzles. There's a difference, I'm finding out, with every puzzle I try. But this was fun even with the lighting issues.

Scott Listfield's "AM Gold."
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Opening on Saturday, April 8th, 2023 at Harman Projects in New York City is artist Scott Listfield's truly amazing solo exhibition, "AM Gold."
Listfield's latest art exhibition, "AM Gold," beautifully intertwines music and memories, capturing the essence of various life stages. The 24 evocative paintings showcased in this collection are not merely representations of his all-time favorite songs or bands; instead, they bring to life the music that triggers the most vivid recollections for him. These poignant memories include listening to the radio in a friend's mom's wood-paneled car, traversing New York City with a walkman in hand, and embarking on an Australian adventure with the Wu-Tang Clan as his sole musical companion.
With a touch of nostalgia for physical media, such as album covers, mixtapes, and more, Listfield has curated accompanying Spotify playlists to enhance the "AM Gold" experience. These playlists provide a deeply personal insight into the artist's musical journey, weaving together songs from his past to create a compelling narrative for today's audience.

My next show is about music and time travel. It's called AM Gold. It opens April 8th at Harman Projects in New York.
Generally speaking, I make paintings about the future, but I've lately found myself looking more backward than forward. Maybe I'm getting older (I'm definitely getting older). Or maybe it's because the last three years have been, to put it as eloquently as I can, massively f*cked up. But I've been time traveling lately. Revisiting old haunts, old friends, old paintings, and old music.
As part of this process of remembering my past, I recreated some long lost playlists from the course of my  life. The top 40 stuff I used to tape off the radio when I was in 6th grade. Hipster blog music from the mid 2000's. Semi-forgotten indie rock from the 90's. 70's soft rock. 90's hip hop which samples 70's soft rock. Brit pop from that time when I thought I wanted to move to London.
As much as anything else, these songs define my life. They're the soundtrack to everything I've ever done. And although I began this journey making playlists to help me document my own personal story, I realize that the songs themselves are as much the subject matter as the memories they inspire.
And so I made a show about music and time travel. I was inspired by the kind of physical artifacts we mostly don't have, don't need, or don't care about anymore: Album covers, CD's, posters, cassette tapes, stereo equipment (with actual knobs), band flyers, zines, photos cut and pasted from magazines, mix tapes shared amongst friends, passed down from cooler older siblings, or made to impress crushes. Of course we now live in a streaming era, and I wouldn't have been able to circle back and find the music which tells the story of my life without it. And so, accompanying this show will be a selection of playlists which I'll post on Spotify. It's an extremely personal list. It's not the best music of the last handful of decades. It runs through a number of incongruous genres. It's definitely not cool. In other words, it's me. AM Gold: the songs from my past, in the present.
