Das Erdbeben in Chili [N#3]‚ 1999 The artwork‚ which is horizontal in its organization‚ is a perfect exemplification of Stella’s description of his works in his later decades as ‘maximalist’. When you first step in front of the forty-foot work of art‚ you get a sense of overwhelming immediacy. I had to step back to be able and see the whole piece because it is rather monumental in size.
