Banksy is one of the most influential and elusive contemporary artists of his generation, renowned for a distinctive visual language that combines dark humor, political commentary, and the immediacy of street art. Emerging from the Bristol graffiti scene in the 1990s, the anonymous British artist has become an international cultural figure whose instantly recognizable stencil-based imagery challenges authority, consumerism, inequality, and conventions of the traditional art world. His works have entered major institutional and private collections worldwide, while his carefully controlled print editions have become an important part of his broader artistic practice.
*Choose Your Weapon (Sky Blue)*, 2010, belongs to one of Banksy’s most recognizable bodies of work, depicting a hooded figure holding a barking dog rendered in the unmistakable linear style of Keith Haring. The juxtaposition brings together two generations of street art while transforming the dog into the figure’s symbolic “weapon”—an image that plays with ideas of aggression, identity, and the power of art itself. Executed as a screenprint in colors measuring 27 1/2 × 27 1/2 inches (70 × 70 cm), this Sky Blue example is signed and numbered from an edition of just 25. The work is framed and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity issued by Pest Control, Banksy’s official authentication body.
