Faust

Show-window of some closed gambling place in Riga centre. Arrogant and ironic move against gamblers - to show them Faust image. Ironic because as we know Faust was a person who sold his soul to Devil - and you can easily interpret gambling in such way. Arrogant because the place owners apparently were assured that their clients are too ignorant and have not heard about what is Faust either just too stupid to notice association.

Gambling places has been hot topic in political agenda here since I don't know when. There has been many proposals to forbid gambling in Riga centre and also suburbs. To be honest, I don't know what is the legal order now, but the fact is that many ex-gambling places in Riga centre are staying empty and closed now.
