Retro Casino Photography

Mamuka Kikalishvili Channels Classic Las Vegas

— September 5, 2009 — Art & Design
Casinos have been glamorized and cinematically enhanced so much that it is nearly impossible to get a true understanding of the experience of going to one from the outside looking in. Mamuka Kikalishvili has beautifully captured the casino in a way that impartially captures the beast that can make or break you within the blink of an eye.

Mamuka Kikalishvili has captured the ominous, yet stylish, side of life inside the casino walls. The artistic photos range from a selectively placed martini glass to romanticized roulette lovers. With the brilliant choice of black and white photography, Kikalishvili shows that a beautiful late night in Vegas always has a dark underside hovering within.
