I've had success using a bendable metal track and steel studs. Here's one company in the US that manufactures the track: http://www.clarkdietrich.com/products/drywall-framing/contour-track. Depending on the radius, you'll likely want to use 1/4" drywall, which is fairly flexible. You can wet the finished side slightly to help it flex. If you need support for hanging, you can back it with Kerf-core or other bending plywood before drywalling.
