Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is now the Premier League's joint top scorer with eight goals
Arsenal moved to within one point of the top four and extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to 17 games with victory at Bournemouth.
The Gunners took the lead thanks to a spectacular own-goal from Cherries midfielder Jefferson Lerma, who volleyed Sead Kolasinac's cross past Asmir Begovic from 15 yards.
Joshua King, making his comeback after four games out with an ankle injury, finished off a swift counter-attacking move to bring the hosts level seconds before half-time.
But Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored what proved to be the winner after the break when he converted Kolasinac's cross for his eighth Premier League goal of the season.
