Kim Bonython: A Tribute
South Australian entrepreneur and arts investor Kim Bonython died on 19 March 2011 after a long illness. He was aged 90.
A patron of Australians for Constitutional Monarchy, he was elected as a South Australian delegate to the 1998 Constitutional Convention.
He played a leading role in the 1999 campaign for a No vote in the republican referendum. The state ( and the nation ) overwhelmingly rejected the proposal.
The ABC reported that he died peacefully in his North Adelaide home on Saturday surrounded by family. This segment was broadcast by the ABC from Adelaide.
The following is a slightly edited report from the ABC.
A lover of fine art and fast cars, Kim Bonython played a key role in securing the Adelaide Grand Prix and introduced Australia to artists such as Arthur Boyd and Sidney Nolan.
I've always said that I've got a reasonably good eye for a good picture, but pretty crook judgement on when to sell them, he once said.
Kim Bonython established an art gallery in Adelaide and also carved an impressive reputation as an art and jazz promoter, introducing Australia to the likes of Chuck Berry and Louie Armstrong.
He also managed Adelaide's Rowley Park speedway for more than two decades.
His daughter, Nicole Bonython-Hines, says her father made his mark on the state in many areas.
He was a very special father and grandfather to us and to the community I think he was a very special individual, he said.
For us, he was just Dad and Poppa, but to the community at large, I think he's done an enormous amount culturally and I think his legacy will live on.
His interest in art has reflected back into the community. In some way he's helped to make Adelaide the cultural state that it is now.
Greenhill Galleries director Russell Starke says Kim Bonython brought previously unknown artists to the fore.
I'm going to miss him personally and his knowledge and his guidance and his intelligence and his wit, he said.
Even when one expects death, it's always a surprise.
Kim Bonython, a RAAF pilot in World War II, took his last breath as an F18 jet shot across the sky over his home as part of show for this week's V8 Supercar rally.
A clairvoyant once said that Dad would die in March in an aeroplane, Ms Bonython-Hines said.
Dad's always been loathe to fly during the month of March ... but in fact he did die in March and he did go off with an aeroplane.
Kim Bonython is survived by his five children and grandchildren.
We have lost a great South Australian but his legacy will live on, Premier Mike Rann said.
Mr Rann said there would be a state funeral on Tuesday March 29 in Adelaide.
