The founding members were: Avram Filipaş, Gheorghe Niculescu, Vasile V. Cândea, Mioara Slavu, Maria Magdalena Săvescu, Corneliu Zaharia, Stelorian Stănescu, Mihai Şerban Voiculescu, Mihai Stănescu, Virgil Ciubotau, Andrei Gherghi, Lidia Storosciuc, Livia Văsui, Dan Dumitrescu, Ioan Rădulescu, Petre Wilhem Lucan, Andrei Voinea, Aurel Dincu, Ioan Tonei Ciobanu, Gabriela Burducea, Ecaterina Ciocan.
