CHICAGO- Per a book that is a serious tool for a prestigious group of art lovers that specializes in collecting "Black Art" there is a telling entry related to Rhythmism. 

On page 63 it reads:

"The discussion of Black Aesthetics is ongoing. It ranges from the development of new technology to arts profound effect upon the viewer. We hear the voice of Chicago artist Turtel Onli, who focuses on elements of rhythm and flow in art. The term he uses to express this concept is Rhythmism."



Onli says, "This a Future-Primitif approach to visual Africanisms as universal design narratives that distinguishes the work of many contemporary artists. Now for its founder's works to find its way onto those collector's radar."

The "Rhythmistic Eyes" set sold to three separate art lovers who were socially connected and decided to share the ownership with visitations and the like. No they are not members of a collecting group. They just had a luv for that artwork series.

" I am so appreciative for the Museum of Contemporary Art's NOG / Onli / Rhythmism Day that hosted me, July 9th , as the first artist actually painting in real time, in which I produced a Rhythmistic update of the iconic image of NOG from 1980 that is currently mural sized on the Chicago Museum's outer wall welcoming folks to witness its awesome "Chicago Comics: 1960 until Now!" blockbuster group exhibition. 


The MCA will be featuring more artists-cartoonist from the exhibition in the near future. 

It was so kool to share & demo the fury, fiya, & funk of live Rhythmistic painting with all of the art lovers, students, curators and fans who were in attendance.
