The Center tries to get in contact with renowned thinkers and artists at home and abroad who have the inclination for phenomenology. It attaches great importance to the cross-disciplinary studies of philosophy, poetry and fine arts, and endeavors to construct the systematic interactivity between philosophy and artistic creativity. The Center offers courses such as Art Phenomenology and Creativity and Theory of Concrete Representation in Painting to Ph.D. students. It has also published the Broken Bridge Art Philosophy Series and hosted the International Symposium on Phenomenology in 2002.
