'CURE/RATED: Bigotry, A Societal Cancer', a new, provocative group exhibition that explores the tensions and emotions systematic prejudices engender in society. It features a group of trailblazing multimedia and multidisciplinary contemporary artists, all based in the United States, who through their nuanced narrative figurative portraits engage extremism, discrimination and bias in western society. Hosted at HOFA Gallery, London, it launches on 22 March and will run for two weeks until 5 April 2021 with the incomparable Amir Fallah headling, whose signature veiled portraits have come to represent the rising trend of abstract figurative portraiture in contemporary American art.

‘CURE/RATED: Bigotry, A Societal Cancer’ is the latest instalment in HOFA's ground-breaking exhibition series focused on spotlighting the portfolios of select art collectors. It is jointly curated by Las Vegas based oncologist, Dr. Fadi Braiteh, and New York based physician and entrepreneur, Dr. Dan Nguyen, who share a deep passion for contemporary art and a conviction in the transformative, redemptive power of art. Drawing parallels between the debilitating effects of metastatic cancer and the cancerous suffering and discord brought on by deep-rooted bigotry, both curators have chosen to feature artists whose works dissect the troubling schisms in society through the narrative perspectives of marginalised groups.

Speaking on this upcoming exhibition, PAVE Contemporary co-founder Elio D'Anna said, "The response to our 'Curated' exhibition series has been amazing and working closely with art collectors like Fadi and Dan who are passionate about discovering and supporting emerging artists is very exciting."

He adds, "‘CURE/RATED: Bigotry, A Societal Cancer’ takes on a topic that's at the forefront of people’s minds everywhere in the world today. Art can help us heal and grow in awareness, and we hope that viewers will be open to examining how they see people who are different because this is an important step towards embracing diverse identities and pushing back against bigotry in all its form."
