Gehry & Associates.      HOTEL AT MARQUES DE RISCAL Elciego, Spain 1998– At Marques de Riscal, the oldest winery in the Rioja region of the Basque Country, Gehry explored a new facet of the material used to dramatic effect in the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao (1991–97), layering ribbons of colored titanium in a canopy adorning a hotel building of natural-colored stone. His ebullient structure is a response to the unbroken landscape of lush vineyards surrounding the building, while the hues of the colored metal are inspired by the rich tones of the sky and vineyard. The techniques Gehry employed to integrate his contemporary structure with its traditional setting are common to his earlier projects. The building's radical departures from the winery's existing architecture, which includes two sandstone structures dating from the nineteenth century, are mitigated by the traditional stone blocks used in its facade. A similar approach is seen in the Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum at the University of Minnesota (1990–93) in Minneapolis and the Peter B. Lewis Building (1997– ) at the Weatherhead School of Management in Cleveland, where the appropriation of familiar materials assists in integrating the buildings' more uncommon metallic elements with the surroundings. Gehry further synthesized the sleek building with its historical setting by exposing the structural support of the canopy—an admission of the building's unpretentious nature. Despite this, the glimmering sculpture, which houses a hotel that includes an exhibition area, a wine tasting room, and a restaurant, is intended to animate the vineyard with a design that is itself an attraction.
