In 1956, he participated in Princeton's first artist-in-residence program with artist Stephen Greene. After leaving a career in architecture in 1969, Guberman dedicated himself to painting, sculpture, and printmaking. He also taught in various prestigious institutions including The Ecole des Beaux Arts in Lausanne, Switzerland (1971-1973), Ecole Polytechnique Federale (1973-1975), Princeton University (1980-1981), University of South Carolina (1990), and Atlanta College of Art (1990). Guberman’s impressive accolades include receiving a National Endowment for the Arts Individual Grant in 1980 and a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1988. His works are held in major collections, including the Smithsonian Museum of American Art, The High Museum, The Hunter Museum, and the Gibbes Museum of Art.
