Guy du Temple de Rougemont, known as Guy de Rougemont, born 23 April 1935 in Paris and died 19 August 2021[1] in Montpellier,[2] was a French painter,[3] watercolourist,[4] draughtsman and sculptor who spent much of his life between Paris and Marsillargues,[5] in the south of France.

A multi-disciplinary artist, he sought to remove the boundaries between the arts,[6] particularly between sculpture and painting, and worked in everyday places, squares and streets, as well as creating objects and furniture. His famous works include his Cloud table[7] (1970), designed for the interior designer Henri Samuel (1904-1996), his Mise en couleurs d'un musée[8] (1974), a temporary artistic intervention during which he covered the columns of the Musée d'art Moderne de la Ville de Paris with strips of coloured PVC, and his Environnement pour une autoroute,[9] in which he installed urban sculptures over 30 km along the La Veuve-Sainte Ménéhould section of the A4 motorway, France (1977).

A member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts, he was the son of General Jean-Louis du Temple de Rougemont (1910-1990).
