During the Depression era, Edward Biberman used the urban landscape of Los Angeles as a backdrop for paintings reflecting the social and economic difficulties of the period. After World War II, however, he seldom engaged in social commentary, turning instead to the abstract qualities of architecture. The cool minimalism of Los Angeles became a hallmark of his work as he sought, in his own words, “the striking beauty of freeway curves ...the evocative forms that engineering necessity often gave to many industrial and civic structures.”
