On September 28, 2022, the City and Province of Salzburg, ORF Landesstudio Salzburg and Progress Werbung once again awarded prizes for the best cultural posters of the past year at the traditional Kulturplakatpreis ceremony. The Department of Fine Arts & Design of the Mozarteum University won 2nd place with its poster for the Tour 2022 "Jellybubble", which was endowed with 3000 euros. The poster was designed by Gerhard Andraschko-Sorgo, lecturer for visual design at the Mozarteum University and managing director of the design studio Linie3.
The department has two reasons to be happy. This year, Progress-Werbung Salzburg announced a trophy competition in which two designs by students of the Department of Fine Arts and Design at the Mozarteum University were selected. The trophy design "More than Paper" by Mario Plattner (Innsbruck location) was selected for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Culture Poster Award as well as for the best series and Clara Elixmann's design from Salzburg was selected as a trophy for the special format of the Culture Poster Award.
Under the artistic direction of Hannfried Lucke, four intensive weeks came to an end on Saturday, featuring 57 masterclasses in 13 subjects, Young Excellence classes and numerous additional offerings on health and professional qualification for musicians. A total of 12 prize winners were honoured for their outstanding achievements.
The versatile and renowned violinist, project manager and lecturer Franziska Strohmayr grew up in Augsburg and came to Salzburg to study, where she still lives today after graduating from the Mozarteum University under Prof. Martin Mumelter and Prof. Wolfgang Gratzer and from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London under Prof. Jacqueline Ross.
It is with great sorrow that the Mozarteum University announces the passing of its former rector, Univ.-Prof. Reinhart von Gutzeit, who died on 11th July 2025 in Lucerne after a long illness, surrounded by his family.
