For the Logobi series, director Monika Gintersdorfer and visual artist Knut Kla\u00dfen worked with the Ivorian dancers and choreographers Gotta Depri and Franck Edmond Yao alias Gadoukou la Star. The parts Logobi 01 (Gotta Depri and Hauke Heumann), Logobi 02 (Gotta Depri and Gudrun Lange), and Logobi 03 (Laurent Ch\u00e9touane and Franck Edmond Yao alias Gadoukou la Star), Logobi 4 (Jochen Roller and Franck Edmond Yao alias Gadoukou la Star) and Logobi 5 (Richard Siegal and Franck Edmond Yao alias Gadoukou la Star) were created.<br \/>\nGotta Depri and Franck Edmond Yao alias Gadoukou la Star grew up with the street dances in Abidjan and have since developed them into glamorous stage performances at home and abroad. In the choreography &#8220;Logobi&#8221; they show, together with various colleagues from the European contemporary dance scene, lines of connection and demarcation between current Ivorian dances, traditional African dance and the European dance development of the 20th and 21st centuries. They demonstrate why, for example, the dance Logobi, even if it looks urban and modern, is closer to the rain dance from the village than to European contemporary dance, which has been increasingly taught and practised in Abidjan for about 10 years. The two dancers show how they use their bodies in a national-African and an international market. In addition, they convey the different contexts in their access conditions, traditions and aesthetics. How is dance suited as a form of engagement with the changes of a modern society? How does it function as an opportunity for professional advancement? What kind of working conditions do dancers enter into in Africa, and what opportunities are offered to them in Europe, for example at the Andr\u00e9 Heller Circus &#8220;Afrika!Afrika!&#8221;, in the context of the modern European contemporary dance scene or in the African milieu that has organised an active club system in all European metropolises.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Artists<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gintersdorferklassen.org\/\">Gintersdorfer\/Kla\u00dfen<\/a> mit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jochenroller.de\/\">Jochen Roller<\/a> and Franck Edmond Yao alias Gadoukou la Star<br \/>\nPremiere 06.11.2009, Dance Congress 2009, Kampnagel Hamburg<br \/>\nA production by Gintersdorfer\/Kla\u00dfen in collaboration with FFT D\u00fcsseldorf, Kampnagel Hamburg, Sophiensaele Berlin<br \/>\nSupported by funds from the NATIONAL PERFORMANCE NETWORK with funds from the Tanzplan Deutschland of the German Federal Cultural Foundation<br \/>\nIn the context of &#8220;Cases of Folklore: regional dance and popular dissolution of boundaries&#8221;.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Salon in preparation for the 8th Tanznacht Berlin 18 and 19 July 2014.<br \/>\nIdea and concept Heike Albrecht (Artistic Director 8th Tanznacht Berlin) and Franz Anton Cramer (dance <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">academic<\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"> and publicist).<br \/>\nSupported by the Hauptstadtkulturfonds\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">www.gintersdorferklassen.org<br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #333333;\"><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', 'Bitstream Charter', Times, serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Logobi is a street dance from the Ivory Coast: the dancer says with his movements, just come here, look at me, I&#8217;ll be a star soon, but before that I can beat you up.<br \/>\nStreet skills and the development of the latest dance trends coincide in the metropolis of Abidjan: the logobi is just one of many dances that are created daily and depict everyday reality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":571,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_FSMCFIC_featured_image_caption":"","_FSMCFIC_featured_image_nocaption":"","_FSMCFIC_featured_image_hide":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[101,102],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/heikealbrecht.net\/ha\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/569"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/heikealbrecht.net\/ha\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/heikealbrecht.net\/ha\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/heikealbrecht.net\/ha\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/heikealbrecht.net\/ha\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=569"}],"version-history":[{"count":16,"href":"http:\/\/heikealbrecht.net\/ha\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/569\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1082,"href":"http:\/\/heikealbrecht.net\/ha\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/569\/revisions\/1082"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/heikealbrecht.net\/ha\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/571"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/heikealbrecht.net\/ha\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=569"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/heikealbrecht.net\/ha\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=569"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/heikealbrecht.net\/ha\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=569"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
