He studied with local Colorado Springs artists Lew Tilley and Jean Charlot at the Fountain Valley School. Guberman continued his education at Princeton University, where, despite the lack of formal painting courses, he produced drawings and small collages. 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. This painting reflects Guberman's profound skill and his ability to bring abstract expression to life, making it a remarkable addition to any collection.
