Courtney Love Debuts New Art Exhibit in NYC

Ms. Love is never one to shy away from controversey, so it comes as no shock that her artwork isn't the run of the mill still life of potted plants and fruit.


The title of the collection is "Courtney Love: And She's Not Even Pretty." Love takes her inner turmoil and in leiu of channeling her pain through her music, she has taken on another venue in the art world.  The current collection now showing at Fred Torres Collaborations, a gallery halfway down a warehouse-strewn aisle of Manhattan. The show, which runs through June 15 is a collection of colored pencil, watercolor, acrylic, marker, and even highlighter.  Some highlights from the collection are shown below.  I for one can't wait to check these out in person.  Especially the wedding dress she wore during her wedding to Kurt Cobain, where she has allegedly embroidered "fuck me" over and over.


Who knew C. Love could embroider so well?
