She was co-artistic director with Gerald McMaster of the Biennale of Sydney (2012). Her curatorial projects have included, ''On Line. Drawing through the Twentieth Century'', Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), New York (2010), and ''Inside the Visible.

Having curated more than eighty museum exhibitions and large-scale perennial exhibitions, her exhibitions challenge mainstream models of art and art history and often promote the feminine principle.
