Banksquiat (Black) is a 2019 screenprint by Banksy, created in tribute to Jean-Michel Basquiat. It shows two police officers searching a crown-headed figure inspired by Basquiat’s work, critiquing racial profiling and the commercialization of art. Released in a limited edition of 300 signed prints, the piece uses a stark black-and-white palette to emphasize its bold, confrontational message.
