MIAMI, Fla. â Believing it was part of an art installation, patrons at an art show were slow to react when a woman was stabbed with a utility knife.
A fight between two women escalated, leading to one woman stabbing the other in the neck and arms Friday at the at the Art Basel Miami Beach, according to police. The women apparently had gotten into a scuffle near an exhibit by the artist Naomi Fisher.

Read one time (probably on this site, as a matter of fact) about a janitor who came across a tray with a bunch of fast food garbage on it, and tossed it all out, only to find out later he had disposed of a (supposed) work of art. Even Tom Wolfe (”The Painted Word”) couldn’t come up with an episode that rich.
It would appear that the stabber was a Chinese female.
that is because art has been recrafted to be utter nonsense these days....

The fact that the bystanders made that mistake should be your first clue as to the state of modern ‘art.’

Security guards and event organizers worked quickly to clean up the scene, and to keep public attention focused on the art and not the stabbing. One bystander said he asked a guard what happened, and was told that a very expensive statue had fallen on someone.
LOL, what? Everyone is in to avant- garde free form expression it seems.
The artist (I use that term lightly) had gathered some dead tree branches stood them upright and hung rubber chickens from them.
You read that right, rubber chickens.
