Onli's Rhythmistic hero, "NOG: The Nubian of Greatness" is featured as a mural-sized promotional display per the Summer / Fall 2021group exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art , Chicago. "Chicago Comics: 1960 until Now!".
NOG was created n the late 1970s and first published by ONLI STUDIOS LL in 1981. This was after Onli had lived and worked in Paris i the late 1970s and experienced potential in the robust Bande-Dessinee scene there. it was the late, great Moebius who strongly suggested the Onli transition form being a free lance illustrator into a indie publisher to better express his styles and concepts.
Amazing how long it takes the art world to embrace or celebrate Rhythmism and all of its potential!
