Last weekend Courtney Love regrouped with the former (and original) members of Hole for a small reunion at Public Assembly in Williamsburg (for the first time in at least 13 years!), and now she's channeling her creative energy into her visual art. (Which is probably better than channeling it into 140 character lexical gems.) This afternoon Courtney Tweeted, "Art show in 2 weeks y'all. Fred Torres collaborations!" Adding that it would open on May 3rd.

The show, called "And She's Not Even Pretty!" will run through June 15th at Fred Torres Collaborations (527 West 29th Street), but Courtney has been Tweeting out sketches for a while now. And while C. Lo has often mentioned the importance of moving forward creatively, this is all very reminiscent of '90s Hole, no? Maybe we're just being thrown off by the manic vibe and the use of the word "pretty."
