The Martin Kusý Award is presented annually by the Slovak Architects Association (SAS) and the Fine Arts Fund in two categories: for works in the area of scientific research, history, theory and criticism of architecture and for the presentation in professional press; and for the presentation of architecture and architectural work in public national mass media (in press, on television and radio), for remarkable and consistent publicist, popularising, awareness-raising, editorial and journalistic activity, or for an outstanding endeavour implemented in the above areas. The award is decided by an expert jury appointed by the Presidium of the Slovak Architects Association (SAS). The 2008 Martin Kusý Award was conferred on Ľubomír Mrňa for his work in the science-research field of history, theory and criticism and for his presentation in the professional press.
