CNEAI (Centre National Edition Art et Images de Chatou)

Perched on the Île des Impressionnistes in the heartland of the squeaky-clean western 'burb, the Centre National Edition Art et Images de Chatou counts as one of the most wonderful contemporary art hubs in the area – nay, the city. The venue, a barge moored to a splendid little garden, plays host all year long to a variety of exhibitions with an experimental bent. It rarely disappoints.
