While Clojure-esque bindings don't exist (that I know of), you can always just use direct calls to OpenGL functions via the LWJGL library. Even write a nice wrapper around them that could be open-sourced. Clojure has complete interop with Java libraries, remember :)

You can also check out the nice wrapper around the Processing library called quil: https://github.com/quil/quil

Last time I've checked (a few years ago) Penumbra was nice clojure-sque OpenGL wrapper. But it seems it's abandoned. Shame, it was really nice, even had clojure DSL to write shaders.

Or Try libGDX http://libgdx.badlogicgames.com

It is a framework developed around LWJGL for the desktop and also has an Android backend. libGDX lets you use OpenGL without worrying about how OpenGL works.
