ENDLESS
‘A BOLD, FEARLESS VOICE IN CONTEMPORARY STREET ART’
Endless is a London-born artist working where street culture, advertising and fine art collide. His practice reframes the languages of branding and celebrity—moving from wall to gallery—through collaborations with Karl Lagerfeld, Gilbert & George and Fiorucci.
Institutional recognition includes the Uffizi Gallery’s permanent collection and representing San Marino at the 59th Venice Biennale. His signature Crotch Grab motif interrogates the image of sex, power and ownership in contemporary media.
ENDLESS (B. 1980s)
‘A BOLD, FEARLESS VOICE IN CONTEMPORARY STREET ART’
Endless, born in London, is widely recognised as one of the most distinctive voices to emerge from the intersection of street culture, fashion, and fine art. His work reframes branding and celebrity, interrogating the machinery of consumerism while celebrating—and critiquing—the imagery that dominates contemporary life.
His early practice took shape in the streets of London, where his interventions drew on the visual codes of advertising and fashion. These urban works quickly captured attention for their incisive commentary and bold graphic presence, establishing Endless as a new voice within British street art. Over the last decade, his practice has evolved from wall to gallery and into the realm of international institutions.
Among his most recognisable motifs is the Crotch Grab figure, a provocative inversion of the classical Venus Pudica pose. This recurring image has become a touchstone of his practice—exploring power, modesty, desire, and the commodification of the body in media culture. It has been exhibited internationally and continues to provoke discussion around the politics of representation.
Endless has collaborated with some of the most iconic names in art and fashion, including Karl Lagerfeld, Gilbert & George, and Fiorucci. These collaborations brought his street-born commentary into dialogue with the luxury fashion world, creating a crossover that blurred boundaries between underground culture and high society.
Institutional recognition of Endless’s impact has grown steadily. His self-portrait with Gilbert & George was acquired by the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, securing his place in one of the world’s most important permanent collections. In 2022, he represented San Marino at the 59th Venice Biennale, further cementing his standing on the global stage.
Endless’s work has appeared in major exhibitions, across leading international galleries, and on the walls of cities worldwide. His practice reflects not only the evolution of street art into a critical contemporary art form, but also the way branding, celebrity, and media imagery shape our culture today.
With a unique ability to move seamlessly between public interventions, gallery exhibitions, and collaborations with fashion and cultural icons, Endless has become a vital link between the underground and the institutional. His contribution to street art history is not only contemporary—it is ongoing.
