    (CNN)A bloody crime or performance art?

    That's what visitors to Art Basel in Miami Beach were left wondering after an altercation between two women attending the art fair turned violent.

    A woman was stabbed after accusing her attacker of following her around the art fair and bumping into her repeatedly, local media reported. CNN affiliate WSVN said police had named the attacker as 24-year-old Siyuan Zhao.

    Zhao stabbed the victim in the neck with a craft knife, WSVN reported.

    "I had to kill her and two more," and "I had to watch her bleed!" Zhao said, according to her arrest report.

    An Art Basel spokesperson said that victim's injuries were not life threatening and the suspect was apprehended by police at the scene within seconds of the incident.

    Knife imitating art?

    The violence unfolded near an exhibit by artist Naomi Fisher, who told the Miami Herald that one witness assumed the blood was fake.

    New York-based sculptor Gregg Hill also told the paper that he saw the victim being wheeled out but never suspected a genuine crime had occurred.

    "People didn't really know what had happened. It was calm and everyone was milling around and talking," he said.

    This is why performance artists should not be allowed to buy guns.

    Isn't his "art collection" just a bunch of pictures of his penis?

    Well to be fair, his penis does have a 10 billion dollar set of balls and an orangutan fir toupee. If that's not art, what is?

    Ah yes knife art - A minimalist approach to art; nothing like gun art which is full blown Jackson Pollock.
