" We are a sculptor from father to son in the Kante family, of Guinean origin and installed in Bobo-Dioulasso for several generations. Ebony, the kola, the kaïcedra that grows on the soil of Burkina Faso are as many wood with colours and slightly different as used for the realization of statues and sculptures often figurative, sometimes more abstract» said Boubacar, who transmitted his knowledge to his younger brothers who each possess their own little window where they expose their creations to sale. The visitor will be able to observe them at work and take after a small bargaining session in the right mood, one of the African statues of their choice. Some readers recommend careful checking before the purchase to avoid the disappointment of cracking and to take off once a vacation is returned!

After having bought an ebony statue at Kanté Boubacar one sets leave end and when you arrive at the house you realise the white ribs of wood were tinted in black (black remains on the fingers) and that the room is not at all



































When you can buy a room (very expensive as an artist) and have not be careful, you realise later that white ribs were tinted by place in order to make accept black. Moreover if wood is known you see in some rooms that it is not sculpted in mass but rooms were stuck between them.
Not really honest!
The workshop of sculpture Boubacar Kante is the best of Bobodioulasso.
