"Joachim Probst was a notorious bohemian in Greenwich Village from 1936 to the mid 1970s. From the early 1940s onward, he fluidly pursued two styles in parallel. One style was the figurative expressionism in which he presented the Crucifixion and Biblical spectacles. His other style was completely non-objective, typically painted as black ink washes — which grew to become an extensive series he called the Night Works. The recent discovery of these latter works not only illuminate and enliven the history of modern painting but reveals Probst’s surprising influence upon a giant of Abstract Expressionism — Franz Kline." - Discoveries in American Art
