Politically, the group supported the Popular Front.
Vicente Huidobro (1893-1948), whom had formed the Creationist literary movement, had been one of the main intermediaries of Surrealist thought in Chile, through his yearly travels to Paris .
The poet Gonzalo Rojas (1917-) was also for a short time member of the group, although he harshly disavowed it years laters . Rojas had introduced the young Jorge Cáceres to Braulio Arenas in 1938 . Others collaborators to the movement included Cáceres, Ferando Onfray, Gustavo Osorio, Huidobro, Pablo de Rokha, the Venezuelan Juan Sánchez Peláez , as well as the paintors Eugenio Vidaurrázaga and Mario Urzúa, the musicians Renato Jara, Alejandro Gaete and Mario Medina, and the artist Ludwig Zeller, among others .
