"El desnudo sigue impresionándome tanto ahora como cuando era un niño"
Clergue nació el 14 de Agosto de 1934 en Arles, al sur de Francia, donde vivió casi toda su vida. De niño se sintío impresionado por la vitalidad y el encanto de las prostitutas locales, que frecuentaban la tienda de comestibles de sus padres. Más tarde estudió la estructura y las proporciones de las esculturas romanas en un museo que había cerca de su casa. Con esos estudios, no es de extrañar que se interesase por la fotografía de desnudo.
La mayor parte de sus primeras obras están hechas en las playas del Mediterráneo, próximas a Arles, a lo largo de los años ha colaborado con muchas modelos, casi todas aficionadas, y ha jugado con temas derivados de la mitología. Como su famosa serie dedicada al mito del nacimiento de Venus.
