In addition to Dr. Michael’s professional interests, he has long been a supporter of the arts, and especially of young artists struggling to forge a name for themselves in a fiercely competitive field. With the opening of SOHO Dermatology & Health, he visualized a space that could fit a dual role, though both these roles revolve around an appreciation of, and ability in, the aesthetic. Thus, the SOHO D&H Gallery was born. SOHO D&H Gallery is a venue where young artists can exhibit their works in an otherwise inaccessible environment; where the passion for art rules, and dictates what works can be experienced in SOHO.
