Les seves crucifixions han estat descrites per Richard Harries, el bisbe d'Oxford, com unes de les pintades més inquietants del segle XX, mentre que el crític estatunidenc Donald Kuspit ha escrit que tant Picasso com Bacon són pàl·lids en comparació. La seva pel·lícula neo-noir Union City, que es va estrenar al 33è Festival Internacional de Cinema de Canes de 1980, va ser descrita per Lawrence O'Toole, crític de cinema de la revista Time, com "una obra mestra sense qualificació". Union City es troba a l'Arxiu Fílmic del Museum of Modern Art, Nova York, i les seves obres cinematogràfiques completes i la seva poesia i prosa inclouen l'Arxiu Marcus Reichert a la Bibliothèque Nationale de France, París.
