| Summary: | This essay traces the author's interest in the Chilean underground, focusing on the two cultural epicentres active from the early 1980s in Santiago: El Trolley and Matucana 19. It analyses how, from the second decade of the twenty-first-century perspective, it is possible to critically engage with histories of the 1980s curatorial work. It focuses on the author's curatorial project entitled *Ander* (2022), which was shown at the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, Chile. The essay charts the author's curatorial methodologies for engaging and re-staging the activities and the "vibe" of El Trolley and Matucana 19, prioritising intergenerational dialogue, archival knowledge, and sensory, affective encounters with the past to impact the present. |
