“For the last 45 years, the Israel Museum has been both the crown jewel of this country’s cultural heritage and a bit of a mess,” giving visitors “a feeling of being overwhelmed by quantity and mildly perplexed about substance.” Beginning next week, “[t]here will be far fewer objects on display, with twice the space to view them, as well as richer links and explanations. … The idea is not simply to make the museum easier to navigate but also to suggest interesting connections among objects and between the particular and the universal.”
