Grand Austrian State Prize




It was originally created in 1950 by then education minister Felix Hurdes . The prize is given according to the recommendation by the Austrian Art Senate without a set rotation schedule for Literature , Music , Visual Art , or Architecture . Since 2003 it has been endowed with a 30,000 Euro prize. In the areas of Film and Artistic Photography , the prize is awarded according to a jury and not the Art Senate.

Since 1971 , the prize has been given to only one person a year, instead of sometimes given to multiple people in different categories.
