Prof. Onli thought he would release some old news clips & reviews of his decades long Rhythmistic practice since he is often asked about his embrace and understanding of future-primitif design flows in the visual arts process. Galleries and museums will appreciate these documents as they further validate exhibition and acquisition of Onli's works for important collections!
Onli came of age as a teen in the late 1960s in Chicago as a wunderkind in the thriving "Black Arts Movement" scene and later earned degrees from the prestigious School of the Art Institute of Chicago. He felt the idea of "Blackness" would grow the mainstream of American culture and commerce.
All the while experimenting with Rhythmistic concepts to later in 1993 launch the growing "Black Age" movement. His was a total immersion of both worlds of creative thought and practices.
All applied in fine art, commercial art, Art educations and Art therapy.
