Born in 1984 in Taipei, Taiwan, River Lin is an independent curator and artist working across the fields of performing and visual arts.
River’s work includes site-specific performance, theatre, dance, and installations. River takes cultural studies as a point of departure and transforms the conventional and ritualistic in everyday life into performance work. River’s curatorial projects revolve around social and cultural issues, in particular the process of generational change, and have been presented by the National Theatre of Taiwan, Guling Street Avant-Guard Theatre and the Performing Art Alliance.
He is currently artist-in-residence at Cité Internationale des Arts Paris, the board member of the Performing Arts Alliance, the curator-in-residence of MOVE Theatre Company, and the feature writer of Art Plus Magazine Taiwan.
