The article focuses on the avant-garde artistic group of Valparaiso called Rosa Nautica, which between 1922 and 1923 tried to portray the daily life of the population of the hills of the port. Also, this group was characterized by spreading the manifestos that appealed to a social revolution led by the dispossessed sectors, not the intellectuals, whose appeal largely stemmed from the relationship established with one exiled Hungarian Socialist Bela Kun regime. Previous research about this avant-garde group has not highlighted his social gaze, subsuming discussions about the writing style more than his background. Therefore we consider it important to reevaluate his vision of the dispossessed sectors of Valparaiso, along with the political project that the group brandished, largely to build a broader view of the development of Chilean social literature of the 190s.
