Choose Your Weapon (Bright Pink) is one of the most sought-after limited edition screen prints by the elusive British street artist Banksy, released in a highly exclusive run of only 25 prints. First appearing in 2010, the work is part of a larger series that pays homage to British subculture and street art iconography.
The piece features a hooded youth walking a dog on a leash—but the dog isn’t ordinary. It’s a stylized rendering of Keith Haring’s iconic barking dog, a nod to Haring’s legacy and a commentary on how symbols of rebellion are adopted and recontextualized by new generations.
Rendered in bright pink against a monochrome figure, this edition stands out for its bold contrast and striking colorway, elevating the message of individuality, resistance, and cultural appropriation. The use of vibrant pink—a color often associated with playfulness and nonconformity—adds a layer of irony and subversion to the otherwise gritty, confrontational image.
Each print is hand-signed by Banksy and numbered from the limited edition of 25, making it one of the rarest variants in the Choose Your Weapon series. Due to its scarcity and vibrant palette, the Bright Pink edition is especially prized among collectors and often commands premium prices at auction.
A compelling fusion of pop culture, protest, and punk spirit, Choose Your Weapon (Bright Pink) embodies Banksy’s ability to challenge authority while honoring artistic lineage, making it a seminal piece in his print oeuvre.
