Her research focuses on modern and contemporary art and theory in Europe and the US, with a particular emphasis on Arte Povera. Her Ph.D. thesis analyses the many cases of self-(re)presentation in works by the Arte Povera artists around 1970, and inquires how the "artists' appearances" sustain and/or challenge the idea of authorial control.
Rem Hansen is interested in connections between Italian and Scandinavian postwar art, and currently works on a project on Danish artist Eva Sørensen (1940-2019), who spent most of her life in Italy.
Rem Hansen has experience from academic teaching on BA and MA level, but also wide experience outside academia: she has worked as editor of art books and journals, as freelance writer/critic, lecturer and curator, and with press and communication in art institutions.edit

Nature is a recurring motif and material in Giuseppe Penone’s oeuvre. This article discusses how Penone’s way of experimenting with the relationship between artistic intentionality and the processuality of natural materials reflects the desire in contemporary posthuman theory to renounce the modern hierarchy between human and non-human entities. Reading Penone’s practice in light of posthuman theory demonstrates how his approach to nature challenges the established comprehension of ‘art as representation’ and the connotations imbedded in the concept of an ‘artwork’.

Introduction to a special issue of "Kunst og kultur", on Arte povera in Norway, edited by Eva Rem Hansen. The texts in this issue, written by Karin Hellandsjø, Maritta Jaukkuri, Karin Hellandsjø, Bente Kiilerich, Jørgen Lund and Eva Rem Hansen, discuss exhibitions and projects by the Italian Arte povera artists in Norway, and exemplify the reception of Arte povera works among Norwegian scholars. The introduction focuses mainly on the first Arte povera exhibitions at Kunstnernes Hus in Oslo in the mid 1980s, which arguably affected the exhibition programme and acquisition policy of the new Museum of Contemporary Art in Oslo, opened in 1990 and part of the National Museum sincee 2003.
