Logobi is a street dance in Ivory Coast and a mirror of its daily reality. Does this African dance, however, have anything in common with contemporary Western dance? The dance company Gintersdorfer/Klassen is addressing that question in their “Logobi” series, conceived in collaboration with Ivorian dancers Franck Edmond Yao and Gotta Depri. For each performance, one of them invites another artist (a dancer, a choreographer, or a playwright) to a witty exchange combining text and movement. The German dancer Jochen Roller joins in especially for the performance at FRAC.
