We all know and appreciate his remarkable body of work and the significant contributions he has made to our university. While not all of our current students may have had the chance to meet him or engage in conversation with him, his personal initiative to name the institution after László Moholy-Nagy ensures his vision continues to inspire the entire community. For those of us lucky enough to have worked alongside him, we have countless stories of the lessons we’ve learned from him, which we like to share whenever the occasion arises. 

Gábor’s approach to leadership is a living legacy here in Zugliget. The reforms and innovations that the MOME community is collectively pursuing today – including, most notably, the drive to foster collaboration across disciplines – are a natural continuation of the path he set us on. As a member of the Foundation’s Board of Trustees, he remains an active and invaluable contributor, offering advice and recommendations to guide us forward. It’s only fitting, as the goal remains the same: to build and maintain a Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design that strives for world-class excellence every day and engages in meaningful dialogue with the world’s leading creative institutions in the fields of art and design. 

Dear Gábor,  
Warmest congratulations and wishing you all the best on your 70th birthday!
