exhibition · 2026-10-13

On 15 October 2026, Todd Goldman, known for the 2000s catchphrase "Boys Are Stupid, Throw Rocks at Them," will launch his inaugural exhibition in London at the London Art Exchange. This month-long event will showcase a fresh limited-edition Ali G collection. Goldman established David & Goliath in 2000, reaching sales of US$90 million by 2004. His notable collectors include Michael Jackson, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Rihanna. In 2023, he initiated a US$55 million lawsuit regarding the unauthorized use of his art. The exhibition will feature over 100 original pieces and aligns with Sacha Baron Cohen's return of Ali G in the film Ali G: Who Iz I?. It will be open until 15 November 2026 at 156 New Cavendish Street, London W1W 6YW.
