Woolfalk's immersive installations are as visually stunning as they are intellectually engaging, winning ardent admirers worldwide. Lavishly illustrated, this volume surveys two decades of Woolfalk's groundbreaking work including the artist's: garment-based sculptures, installations, videos, paintings, and live performances. \"The Empathics\" are a fictional race of women whose story runs throughout Woolfalk's artworks. Their name reflects the hope that future societies will develop stronger empathy for one another, and their visual culture has its own distinctive imagery, symbolism, and folklore, incorporating aspects of African, African-American, Japanese, European, and Brazilian art, craft, and storytelling.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlexandra Schwartz \u003c\/b\u003eis curator of modern and contemporary art, craft, and design at the Museum of Arts and Design, New York.
