Sophie McIntyre is a curator, lecturer, and art writer based in Australia. Her research explores the relationship be­tween politics, identity, and artistic agency in the production, selection, display, and reception of art, particularly in Taiwan and China. She is currently completing her forthcoming book entitled Imagining Taiwan: the role of art in Taiwan’s quest for identity (1987–2010) (Brill, 2018). Her texts have been published in art journals, periodicals and art catalogues in Australia and overseas, including Journal of Curatorial Studies; Art AsiaPacific; Yishu: Journal of Contemporary Chinese Art; and Art Monthly Australia. She has curated over 30 exhibi­tions, many of which have focused on contemporary art from the Asia-Pacific region, and some of these have featured art from Taiwan and China. These exhibitions include Ink Remix: Contemporary Art from Mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong (2014-17 – touring); Penumbra: Contemporary Art from Taiwan (2007); Concrete Horizons: Contemporary Art from China (2005); and Face to Face: Contemporary Art from Taiwan (1999–2000).
