Piotr Piotrowski Center for Research On East-Central European Art serves as a platform to support and enable contact between researchers who explore the art of Central and Eastern Europe by organising a biannual event: the East-Central European Art Forum; by preparing publications; and through a broad offer of lectures crucial for experts and beginners alike. The Center enjoys a material foundation consisting of the Piotr Piotrowski Archive (donated to Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań by Maria Żuk-Piotrowska) and the Piotrowski library (bought by AMU), which was planned as both an introductory and comprehensive collection related to his field of research, and is being systematically expanded and developed.

As part of the Resonances project, the fourth international conference will be held in Poznan as the second East-Central European Art Forum of the Piotr Piotrowski Center for Research On East-Central European Art. During the event, cooperation between the Center and the Arsenal Gallery in Poznań will be inaugurated in the aspect of substantive supervision of the NET archive, handed over by Jarosław Kozłowski as a deposit to the city of Poznan in 2022.
