Publisher's Synopsis
Casinoland - Tired of Winning is the result of a thirty year long photography project in which Michael Rababy documents US American gambling culture. Rows of shrill slot machines, glowing billboards, and gaudy splendour appear alongside exhausted faces, tired looks, and lost games. Rababy's realistic camera view scrutinizes the glamorous appearance of the gleaming gambling halls and exposes their mendacious promises of wealth. The series focuses more on the casino as a capitalist institution as a whole than on the individual gamblers.
