You will need to build a 2x4 curved frame first and then cover it with Sheetrock/drywall. Go on to www.diynetwork.com or www.hgtv.com and you can look up the plans for whatever project you want.

I'm not sure of your question so I'll answer both.
To build a curved wall first you need some plywood. Take the plywood and layout your radius. If its a 20 foot radius you will take a tape measure and hold the twenty foot mark on the plywood and mark the radius and then add 3 5/8" and make that radius mark. Cut several pieces and then place them together. Over lap joints with a second layer so that the total is an 1 1/2" make enough radius pieces to build your wall. Then build your wall. To apply drywall stand your drywall on one sawhorse and wet the drywall when the drywall dries it will have a curve. When you attach the drywall to the wall start from one side and screw it to the other.
Good luck

i've seen them do it on tv. they build the frame, then cut slits in the back of the rock about 1 inch apart. sometimes they spray it with water. start at one end and go around slow.

as far as applying the drywall, go to a drywall supply house, and get 1/4" flex board. apply two layers and it will make your life much easier.
