LEON BIBEL Farm Scene.
Color screenprint, 1938. 276x346 mm; 10 In 1936, Bibel moved from California to join the Federal Art Project of the New York City WPA. Because he could not meet the residency requirement, he applied under his brother Philip's name. He was assigned to the Gaphic Art Project and the Easel Project at Harlem Art Center, where he taught at both P.S. 94 and Bronx House. Consequently, several prints from his early WPA work are signed P.L. Bibel, his brother's initials.
