“An exquisite selection of images capturing young Africans dancing joyful on the rhythms of the twist, the cha cha cha and rock ‘n roll; set against a backdrop of a new area for Mali after it’s independence from France in 1960. Through Sidibé’s vibrant black & white photographs the Malian youth culture of the sixties and seventies can be revisited again, as it would be a live retrospective in time”.
