A satirical look at the US American casino culture

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 splendor 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. Michael Rababy is a Lebanese-American documentary photographer, who deals frequently with US American culture and society in his work. He works as a freelance photographer and has photographed for numerous media companies. Casinoland - Tired of Winning is his fourth book project.

Gleason, Mat: - Mat Gleason (b. 1964, USA) is an internationally recognized art critic and curator of contemporary art. He is founder of the highly controversial Coagula Art Journal and most known for his aversion to established orthodoxies and his fearlessness in voicing an informed opinion.

Rababy, Michael: - "Michael Rababy is a Lebanese-American photographer and filmmaker who likes to create pictures of people. He studied art history at the University of San Diego before spending some time in Paris. His ethnographic documentary book "american bachelor" details the highs and lows of the single male, followed by "folsom street food court", an irreverent take on the annual street fair in San Francisco. Rababy also curates photography exhibitions at the Hive Gallery in the downtown Los Angeles arts district and created the book "california love - a visual mixtape". His short film 'still lives', which premiered at the Palm Springs International Short Film Festival, was an official selection of the Miami Short Film Festival.
