Per 2024 ONLI STUDIOS will focus on selling its precious Rhythmistic Fine Art to well-resourced institutions such as museums and collecting art centers or companies. This reorganization is the result of last year's certified appraisal of Prof. Onli's proven decades long and well documented Rhythmistic practice and its growth potential.
The appraisal document will be made available upon serious request.
Decades before the trending of AI & Afrofuturism Onli was exploring the perimeters of his Rhythmistic Future-Primitif approach to the Visual arts in illustration, fashion design, Art Therapy, Art Education and Fine Art. This is all well documented.
Onli is that rare visual artist who actually launched and named two distinct visual arts genres / movements.
"Rhythmism" as a Future-Primitif approach to the visual arts.
The "Black Age of Comics" as an open positive celebration of concepts, creators and content in the world of Games, Cartoons, Comic Books and Graphic Novels that is derived from the Black, African, Urban and Alternative experience. With the emphasis that one does not have to be Black to get one's Black Age of!
NOTE: Picasso did not launch Cubism. Van Goth did not establish Impressionism. Warhol did not coin the term Pop Art. Nor did Basquiat create the genre of Street Art.
Onli is that unique.
Onli is also known for actually working in both the Fine Art world and the Commercial art world.
Unlike the celebrated and often vastly over-rated fine artists who claim to be influenced by comics or comic books and appropriate comic material, yet never work in that field.
A Wiki search of Turtel Onli will support this fact.
Onli is versatility in real time, over decades. This is the stuff of genius.
Prof. Onli has been creating Rhythmistic watermelon themed visual art to reach into various world cultures since the early 1970s.
