When I was in school, our art teacher had sure we were exposed to many artist, art forms and genres. One of her favourites, and consequently mine, was Hockney's montages.
Place Furstenberg, Paris by David Hockney
Its immensely clever. The idea behind his work being capturing time in a body of photographs. Hockney disliked that photography showed only a fraction of a second of reality and could in fact, misrepresent an event. So he took hundreds of pictures and constructed them as a "photo". Have a good look at the picture. Then search Google for some more of his work, "The Scrabble Game" for example.
