A bull with wheels.
To see animals with wheels instead of hooves is not rarely for the artist. But in this case the title alludes to Troy, the typical representation of the famous Trojan horse was changed to a bull.
Heriberto Juárez was a visual artist of national and international renown. He sculpts, paints and engraves but is widely known because for his sculptures. Juárez work has pre-Hispanic influence and different forms of abstraction, using humans and animals as subjects of his work. Heriberto Juárez is the artist with more pieces in UDLAP Art Collection.
