From 21 May, Maison Caillebotte, in Yerres, is hosting the exhibition Modernités portugaises (Portuguese modernities), which looks at the modernist period in Portugal. The exhibition focuses on the relationship between Portugal and France, particularly Paris as an international artistic centre to which many artists moved in the early 20th century in search of modernity.
