Publication: Nee de la Vague - Pierre Belfond // Lucien Clergue's Nyu de la Mer Camargue (1979) is a poetic black-and-white photograph that captures the human form in an intimate, natural setting. This piece, from Clergue’s Nee de la Vague series, presents a close-up of a nude body partially submerged in water, with light delicately reflecting off the skin and water’s surface. The interplay of shadows and highlights accentuates the curves and texture of the figure, creating a sensuous and contemplative image. The granular quality of the sand and the rippling reflections enhance the organic, tactile feel, immersing the viewer in the scene’s quiet intimacy. This photograph exemplifies Clergue’s mastery of using natural elements to elevate the beauty of the human form.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
