Released in 2010, Choose Your Weapon (Turquoise) is part of Banksy’s iconic and highly collectible Choose Your Weapon series. This edition of only 25 signed prints is among the most limited and desirable color variants, known for its bold palette and cultural depth.
The artwork features a hooded youth—faceless and anonymous—walking a leashed dog, which is rendered in the unmistakable style of Keith Haring’s barking dog. This fusion of Haring’s energetic street symbolism with Banksy’s gritty urban figure creates a layered narrative about rebellion, identity, and the transmission of countercultural ideas across generations.
The turquoise colorway is one of the most visually arresting in the series. Its vibrant, almost electric tone contrasts sharply with the monochromatic figure, injecting the piece with a sense of urgency and cool defiance. Turquoise, often associated with clarity, individuality, and nonconformity, adds symbolic weight to the print’s message of resistance and youth empowerment.
Each print is hand-signed and numbered by Banksy, making this edition not only exceptionally rare but also highly coveted by collectors worldwide. Choose Your Weapon (Turquoise) stands as a vivid, thought-provoking, and quintessential example of Banksy’s ability to merge striking visuals with cultural critique.
Let me know if you need a shorter version or one tailored for a gallery catalog, auction listing, or social media post.
