Likewise, El Británico inaugurated an exhibition on the musical genre “subte”: “Lima 1988“. A sample that honors the political, social and cultural events of that complicated Peruvian capital that motivated the emergence of underground rock, a term used to refer to music located outside of commercial circuits and appeared as a symbol of protest.
That time of the First Non-Professional Rock Contest, organized by TalleRock and Esquina magazine, will be revived, a musical event that aroused the interest of the dormant Lima music scene and that paved the way for the development and growth of this movement. The exhibition runs from Monday to Saturday until April 22 at the San Juan de Lurigancho del Británico gallery, located at Av. Próceres de la Independencia 1531.
