During his visit to Bandung on October 3, the 2024 presidential candidate, Ganjar Pranowo, visited NU Art Studio, owned by prominent artist I Nyoman Nuarta. This moment is a special opportunity for Ganjar to interact with Indonesian art maestros and see various spectacular works.

I Nyoman Nuarta seemed enthusiastic about welcoming Ganjar Pranowo, taking him around at the NU Art Studio Bandung museum. This museum shows off various extraordinary works of art, including some of the most famous ones such as the Garuda Wisnu Kencana Statue, Jalesveva Jayamahe, and many more.

"I've been wanting to visit here for a long time and see Mr. Nyoman's extraordinary artwork. He is one of the artists that I admire, and today my dream has come true," said Ganjar Pranowo with admiration.

During the visit, Nyoman Nuarta also showed the design of the Presidential Office in the capital city of Nusantara (IKN), which would be an important place if Ganjar was elected president. The office design is in the form of Garuda and is part of a large project IKN entrusted to Nyoman to design several main buildings.

Nyoman explained the design concept of the unique IKN presidential office, focusing on the sustainability and beauty of tropical nature. He hopes that the office will become a refreshing and environmentally friendly place.

In addition to seeing the design, Ganjar was also invited to look at the details of the IKN presidential office through a mini cinema. In the moving picture, the office looks very stunning.

Ganjar's visit to NU Art Studio also includes seeing the process of making steel pillars that will be used at IKN. All of these pillars are made handmade by Indonesian workers.

Ganjar expressed his impression and pride in being able to meet Nyoman Nuarta and see the work and process of making IKN. He believes that Indonesia has great potential with great artists like Nyoman who have gone global.

"This is proof that Indonesia has the ability to create its own. Nyoman Nuarta has proven that Indonesian artists are not only able to build physical, but also provide a touch of extraordinary art and concepts like in this IKN project," he said.

This visit strengthens Ganjar Pranowo's belief that Indonesia has all the potential to become a big country, with extraordinary and recognized artists in the international world.
