Pablo Bartholomew‘s arresting images of the Naga peoples of Burma and India have been up at the Rubin Museum in New York since March. The show closes 21 September, so if you haven’t had an opportunity to see it yet, make one. The Naga tribes as a group are among the most diverse and interesting traditional societies existing on earth. Having lived in relative isolation into the modern era, their cultures were relatively uninfluenced by the rest of us. Times change. The Nagas are changing. Bartholomew’s visual anthropology bears witness to the change and consistency which co-exist in Naga culture now.  Image ©2009 Rubin Museum of Art
