Another amazing artist in the world of paper (and photography is Thomas Demand...http://thomasdemand.de/He creates elaborate scenes out of paper than photographs them - from across a room it looks absolutely real, until you get close and notice all the outlets are just little white rectangles.He had a show at MoMA a few years ago, and I beleive one of his larger pictures is now installed in the MoMA Restaurent, The Modern.
