DIED. Jason Rhoades, 41, wildly irreverent conceptual and performance artist who rose to fame in the 1990s art scene; of heart failure; in Los Angeles. His most recent installations were a riotous clash of civilizations in which visitors became part of his work, in a gallery transformed "like Ali Baba's cave," said Gary Garrels, senior curator at UCLA's Hammer Museum, "with neon lights, rugs, Mexican tourist souvenirs, American Indian dream catchers, hookah pipes ...

Ethnic groups, who rely on the UC to fund Cinco de Mayo festivities and baba ghanoush feeds, seem to be particularly rapt with this game, but the implications of an ethnic endorsement are transparently ludicrous.
