Thelonious Monk's compositions/improvisations feature dissonances with complicated melodic twists and are consistent with his unorthodox approach to the piano (which combined a highly percussive attack with abrupt, dramatic use of switched key releases, silences, and hesitations).
Monk was highly regarded by his peers and by critics, but often his music was regarded as too ""difficult"" for more mainstream acceptance. Thelonious Monk is one of five jazz musicians to have been featured on the cover of Time magazine. He had a unique improvisational style and made numerous contributions to the standard jazz repertoire…Monk is the second-most-recorded jazz composer (after Duke Ellington) and received prestigious awards for his career achievements (including a Grammy, a Pulitzer Prize and an induction into the Music Hall of Fame).

This allowed the creation of a new 700 m 2 basement room for temporary exhibitions, as well as departments for the relief models and for 19th-century sculpture. Work began in 1991, under the architects Jean-Marc Ibos and Myrto Vitart, and was completed in 1997. It was renovated during the 1990s and reopened in 1997.Īt the start of the 1990s, the building's poor state and the moving of Vauban's relief models of fortified towns to Lille forced the town to renovate the building. The building is located on the place de la République, in the center of the city, facing the préfecture of Lille. The architects chosen to design the new building were Edouard Bérard (1843–1912) and Fernand Etienne-Charles Delmas (1852–1933) from Paris. Construction of the Palais's current Belle Époque-style building began in 1885 under the direction of Géry Legrand, mayor of Lille, and it was completed in 1892. In 1866, the "musée Wicar", formed from the collection of Jean-Baptiste Wicar, was merged into the Palais des Beaux-Arts. The museum opened in 1809 and was initially housed in a church confiscated from the Récollets before being transferred to the city's town hall. The painters Louis Joseph Watteau and François Watteau, known as the "Watteau of Lille", were heavily involved in the museum's beginnings - Louis Joseph Watteau made in 1795 the first inventory of the paintings confiscated during the Revolution, whilst his son François was deputy curator of the museum from 1808 to 1823. Jean-Antoine Chaptal's decree of 1801 selected fifteen French cities (among which Lille) to receive the works seized from churches and from the European territories occupied by the armies of Revolutionary France. It was one of the first museums built in France, established under the instructions of Napoleon I at the beginning of the 19th century as part of the popularisation of art. It is one of the largest art museums in France. The Palais des Beaux-Arts de Lille ( Lille Palace of Fine Arts) is a municipal museum dedicated to fine arts, modern art, and antiquities.
