Allegorical Harpoon (1964)

Allegorical Harpoon is one of the first creations in hard wood in which the sense of values were more important than the heroic representation of the Filipino ancestors. This sculpture was Napoleon Abueva's entry for the XXXII Venice Biennale in 1964. Its one of his best abstract sculptures.

It is an artwork with its movable, swivel-piece pegged to its rifle-shaped horizontal torso, impresses with its elegant but puzzling appearance.
