Melissa Steckbauer has been jetting around the world for the past few months; taking part in art shows in Asia and Europe. During September 2008 her intrepid, sexually charged paintings and introspective video projects will be on display in Italian and Austrian cities.

While in Belgrade she was interviewed by the Serbian National Television Network and Hsuan-Yu Pan for Art Makers upon her return to New York; click here to watch the video. In addition to being a world class artist she’s also a bonafied Ladies Lotto New York member.

In late September Melissa will have a solo show in Livorno, Italy. We’ll keep you up to date on the details. In the meantime, you can catch her here:
