Two of Chicago's vital Black Futurists: Prof. Turtel Onli founder / publisher of Rhythmism: the Future-Primitif approach to the visual arts and Ytasha Womack author / researcher on all things Afrofuture. Caught kicking it at the recent Pocket Con Event at the downtown Chicago Cultural Center. Onli is a Future-Primitif vintage visual artist whose practice started when he was a teen-wunderkind in the Black Art Movement in the late 1960s. He is still flowing from the Rhythmic Zone.
Ytasha is the author / researcher of the landmark book, "Afrofuturism". Both went world-wide from the South Side .......of Chicago!
Ytasha and Turtel can be found at Comic Cons, Musuem Stores, Universities and Galleries Not to mention in major collections too. The Chicago connection!Wesley Sun, Joe Currie & Ytasha Womack in Chicago!
