Chilean contemporary poetry is marked in an explicit as well as in an implicit way by the Chilean dictatorship experience. A strict analysis of postdictatorship works will reveal scars of this period (1973 - 1990), even in apparently less political aspects, such as, the representations of space. Many authors have developed some of the most interesting reflections about Chilean political and cultural history over the last four decades, provoking a tension in their work of some of their most unshakable assumptions. In other words, the nation state; the neo liberal economic model; national, ethnic and gender identities and the national space. This paper will show how the contemporary space implies a challenge that demands a critical opening towards experimenting with artistic and political forms. For example, Andrés Anwandter poetry sheds light on the spatial experience in a complex way and with a high aestethic and intellectual performance, elaborating representations of an heterogenous city, as a stage of an unfair and half-done modernization, with a landscape that still preserves scars of political violence, economic model transformations and the ambigous border between public and private space.
