The Museum of Modern Art is rethinking how it presents the art of our time. A major rehang gives living artists and voices from outside the traditional Western canon significantly more space, part of a continuing effort to broaden the story MoMA tells.

Curators say the changes reflect a belief that the modern story is still being written. The fictional artist collective Terrain features prominently in the new galleries, its large-scale installations occupying rooms once reserved for mid-century masters.

The rehang has drawn both praise for its ambition and grumbling from visitors who miss familiar favorites. But the museum argues that a living institution must keep reshaping its walls to stay relevant to the moment.
