Anthony "Ace" Bourke - art.afterhours

@laoqudeqiangshen: It was when they were interviewed on the 'Today' TV programme I think, Ace was there as well and he did answer one or two questions, but John answered most of them, but don't get me wrong here..I enjoyed the way he explained the various situations which happened with 'Christian' it was very exiting. It is still on the Youtube videos I think.

It's difficult to tire of watching Ace's interview with Bryan here, I could watch it over and over..in fact I think I might just about be able to repeat it all word by word,...fanatic? probably. It would have also been nice to see John along side Ace here too. Although I did see an interview once with John answering most of the questions, perhaps he was giving Ace a bit of space to tell it as he knew it.

This story has become a world wide known true story, and what a beautiful one it is too.

@heulceris

Hey could you please give the link of the interview by John you mentioned ? ThankS !

Yes we have asked John but his travels did not allow him to appear for AAH. We would like to invite him again when we have a relevant spot for him. All our Artafterhours programs are in association with our exhibitions so we need to find the right match.

Cheers and thanks for the question

Yes it's a great interview/talk isn't it, one of my favourites also.

@ArtGalleryNSW - Just a quick question for you, do you think you might ever do an interview with John Rendall? I believe John travels and/or lives between England and Australia. I'd love to see an in depth interview with him, like the one you did with Ace.

That's a great interview, one of the best I have seen with Ace. Thank you for posting it.

Ace: How lovely to watch 30 full minutes of you talking about Christian. I think you and John, in all the videos, have given the world a gift by increasing our understanding of the need to protect Africa's predators. But what was that? An 80% decline? In the '08 interviews, you mentioned a 2/3 decline. An additional 14% decline in 18 months?! Oohing and aahing over Christians sweetness is very nice but we must also put our money where our mouths are and work harder towards conservation.
