This year’s Pontifical Council for Culture’s Per Artem Ad Deum Medal has been awarded to Rodziński, the painter has been presented the accolade in recognition of “the shades of life which embody the quest for solace and reflection upon life’s transience”

For a number of years Rodziński has collaborated with Krakow Fine Arts Academy; he has also been the Dean as well as the Rector of the Academy. Rodziński is also a member of PAU and the National Heritage Board of Poland’s Programme Council.
