Abroad, she has participated in group exhibitions in  Egypt, Hungary, South Korea, Sweden and Indonesia.

In 1999 she was invited by the Ohio State University ((US) as a guest lecturer – artist in residence.
From 1984 until 2006 de Vaal was advisor to several leading art institutions in the Netherlands.
