I love Cornell. The pieces read like three-dimensional sketchbook pages. I can't even tell you the amount of times I've wanted to stuff something in my sketchbook but it just won't happen due to the 3D nature of our world.

On the topic of assemblage though, check out Ken Matsubara. I saw him at an art fair last year it blew me away that something like that could be made. Videos playing on the bottom of glasses of water, or inside a stool and many inside little boxes similar to the ones Cornell made.
