Inspired by "NOG" being the Future-Primitif face of the blockbuster group exhibition at the change making, trend setting Museum of Contemporary Art, Summer / Fall 2021 called "Chicago Comics: 1960 Until Now", curated by Dan Nadel. . NOG was mural sized on the MCA's outer wall near the door to its Museum Store which featured NOG merchandise in the form of a Tote Bag, post cards, a ever-cool NOG Sketch Book, plus autographed copies of "Tales From The Rhyhthmic Zone", the Graphic Novel that includes expanded versions of the original NOG stories. So Rhythmistic! All artwork on this blog by Prof. Onli is Copyright 2023 Turtel Onli , and other dates.

  RHYTHMISM:  Future-Primitif pathways to creative expressions and processing was branded and launched by Prof. Turtel Onli, M.A.A.T., circa 1970s, as a manifestation of the Kwanzaa Principle of Kujichagulia. Self Determination. 

Unlike a current trending term that was christened by a non-Black or non-African to give a label to the creative expressions of those great people.  Habari Gani??


This unique solo Rhythmistic exhibition, that shows in a retrospective type presentation what Onli calls "Black Male Mojo" in real time and full visual genius, closes Dec. 10th, 2021. It is no accident that Onli's works would be presented in the building named after one of the greatest Balck Male visual thinkers of the 20th Century, the late prolific Gordon Parks!
