Anri Sala Missing Landscape, 2001
Video projection (colour, sound)
Duration 14:55 min
In Missing Landscape, Sala returns to his homeland Albania, chronicling a game of soccer played by teenage boys in a rural, mountainous landscape. Against this backdrop of untamed nature and lofty peaks, the remote playing field, marked by two improvised goals, becomes a theatrical, quasiarchaic arena, and the routine game of the village boys resembles a repetitive ritual.
