Never before has the Golf National drawn so much light with these 2 major events. At the start of the year, an event book pays tribute to the beauty of its courses: “Parcours de Lumières”, a work born from the meeting of Claude Rodriguez, golf photographer, and Jacques Setbon, publisher (S & Co) passionate about art and golf. "Through each of the pages of this event book, I want to help golf and photography enthusiasts discover the early mornings of the National Golf", explains the author. “It is a magical space whose colors, lights and shadows have always charmed me. "

Available on the site www.parcoursdelumieres.com, as well as in the shop of the Golf National de Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, the book "Parcours de Lumières" and its 2 gift boxes will be presented and on sale on Thursday, February 15, 2018 at the Galerie Jean-Denis Walter, in the presence by Claude Rodriguez.

Visitors will also be able to discover in the Galerie Jean-Denis Walter the “Outdoor” exhibition: “When sport is also a hymn to the beauty of the world. Mountain and countryside, rather than stadiums and gymnasiums. "In this exhibition, we celebrate sport and its primary values: effort, surpassing, confrontation with others and with oneself, when it is practiced in natural settings", explains Jean-Denis Walter. The exhibition revolves mainly around two essential photographers: Alexis Berg, the specialist in long-distance trails and Jeremy Bernard, the lover of the mountains. Outdoor sport is also well represented by the work of Christophe Calais, Gerry Cranham, Sophie Mabille and Joost Wensveen.
