Prof. Onli adjusting his newly completed series tribute to B.A.G..
This homage includes four Black and White, 30"W X 40"H, museum-profiled canvases.
These interpreted images were derived from icons created by Greg Broils, Kenneth Hunter, Dalton Brown, Jim Smoote and Turtel Onli in the early active period of B.A.G. Circa 1970 - 1973.
Each B.A.G. member had pioneered this esthetic independently as teens in high-school, before the founding of B.A.G. by the then 18 year old Onli. They were all pleasantly shocked during a early meeting when each shared their high-school sketch-books to discover each were already doing similar visual stylizations and treatments.
This homage is a tribute to that wonderfully fertile creative epiphany.
