Besides being one of Canada’s foremost artists, Robert Bateman is also a naturalist recognized by the Audubon Society as one of the 20th century’s “heroes of conservation.” Robert has received numerous honours and awards, including the Order of Canada and fourteen honorary doctorates. He has been the subject of several films and books, including The Art of Robert Bateman (1981), The World of Robert Bateman (1985), An Artist in Nature (1990), Natural Worlds (1996), Thinking Like a Mountain (2000), Birds (2002), New Works (2010), Life Sketches (2015) and Bateman’s Canada (2017), as well as several children’s books.
“Robert Bateman and I met at the University of Toronto in the 1950s through the Naturalists Club. He became a masterful painter best known for exquisite depictions of wildlife and as a biologist I became globally recognized for my seminal research with giraffe. Robert gifted me the wonderful painting, Running Wild, decades ago and I’m thrilled to offer it from my personal collection. The artist and the scientist are joined in this brilliant work. Over the last 30 years giraffe populations have declined 40% due to habitat destruction, poaching, wildfires, drought, and illegal trafficking of trophies. The Anne Innis Dagg Foundation was established to raise awareness and to further the efforts around giraffe conservation within Africa by engaging the locals and their communities. ” – Anne Innis Dagg
“A running giraffe is maybe not quite as elegant as a running cat or horse but there is a certain dignity and grace to their loping gait. They still cover a lot of ground when being chased by lions, leopards or hyenas. And their karate-like kick is a deadly defence. In this painting they look almost playful rather than pursued.” -Robert Bateman
From an original painting created for Anne Dagg by Robert Bateman in 1960.
