In spring 2024, the city of Krems announced the Erich Grabner Prize for artistic graphics for the first time. The winners were announced at the final in the Dominican Church. The four categories announced by the city of Krems, the state of Lower Austria, the Rotary Club Krems-Wachau and Göttweig Abbey were evaluated by the jury. This year, the Lower Austria Prize goes to Ernst Lima. It is endowed with 4.000 euro and a curated insight into the art collection of the state of Lower Austria.

Ernst Lima studied at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna from 2013 to 2021 in the fields of Art and Image | Graphics and Art and Image | Expansion. In 2021/22, Lima was a scholarship holder in the Mentoring Program Art.
