Adam Himebauch Trades Stunts for Stillness in ‘Serenity Now’

Jupiter Miami is set to unveil Serenity Now, a solo exhibition by New York-based artist Adam Himebauch, running from February 16 through March 20. For Serenity Now, Himebauch strips things down, presenting a series of monochromatic landscapes inspired by pre-urban Miami and a recent trip to Jamaica. It’s a stark departure from his usual theatrics, offering a quiet, meditative shift in his practice.Monochromatic landscapes aren’t entirely new territory for Himebauch. In 2020, the self-taught artist explored hyper-saturated, intricately rendered forest scenes as a way to challenge his own technical abilities. Those works later became integral to Back to the Future, a conceptual project that blended media and nostalgia, using a predominantly black-and-white Instagram feed punctuated by bursts of vibrant color.With Serenity Now, Himebauch trades spectacle for stillness, embracing a refined, contemplative approach that underscores his evolution beyond performance and into the raw essence of painting.Jupiter Miami1217 71st StreetMiami Beach, FL 33141Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast
