PARIS.- The Stratton Foundation for the Cultural Arts has a cultural and educational programme which involves generously donating a copy of their important new book ,’Dali in the Third Dimension’ to Universities, Colleges and schools’ arts libraries for use by their students.

This award winning book, ‘Dali in the Third Dimension’ is an in-depth study of the three dimensional artworks of the great Catalan genius Salvador Dali. It presents the dreams of an art collector, Beniamino Levi who is the President of the Stratton Foundation, and it details his quest to bring these works of art to the notice of the public. By touring the Collection worldwide, Levi has done much to promote awareness of this major aspect of Dali’s creative genius.
