Barr's MOMA was brilliant and fun. If it ain't broke don't fix it. Now, the rehung Modernist collection will start with a Signac rather than the Cezanne bather because it's a gift of David Rockefeller. The reporter does a good job of drawing out the curators' pitiful rationales. A better example of how bad the "Modern Starts" rehanging was a few years ago was the Gerrit Rietveld chair next to the Duchamp stool/bicycle wheel.
