Are you Present and Correct?

When SHEEKGEEK first visited Present and Correct it was as if all their Christmases had come at once. They have the finest selection of new and old stationary and some of the loveliest greetings cards around. We've become a regular customer and we just love their aesthetic. Plus, as if all of this wasn't enough they even publish a "list of the week" 10/10 we say!

Polly Morgan

Here at SHEEKGEEK, we can't help but find the work of Polly Morgan utterly captivating. We saw her work most recently at the fantastic show called "The Age of the Marvellous." We can't wait for her solo show in July at Haunch of Venison , another SHEEKGEEK favourite.

Mr Fantastic's back!

SHEEKGEEK were absolutely delighted when the DVD of Wes Anderson's Fantastic Mr Fox became available. SHEEKGEEK had waited with excited, patience for the film to come out last year. Now back on the small screen, complete with fantastic extras, Mr Fox is back! SHEEKGEEK is a long standing fan of Anderson's work and the immense rigour he employs for the styling of each project. In particular, we were so enthralled to learn that for Fantastic Mr Fox Anderson photographed, recorded and catalogued every piece of furniture in Dahl's home in order to create miniatures for the shooting of the film. Mr Anderson, SHEEKGEEK salutes you.

The School of Life

SHEEKGEEK is both a big fan of, but also a regular visitor to the School of Life. Not only do they have a fantastic timetable of events and talks, they also have a real gem of a book shop.

They are also the purveyors of the wonderful "Daily Aphorisms," which can be purchased in their shop. SHEEKGEEK can't help but agree with this one whole heartedly.

Mr Joseph Cornell

In the SHEEKGEEK office, one of our favourite people is none other than Mr Joseph Cornell. SHEEKGEEK were so pleased to learn of a new Cornell book, they simply had to share it with you. The Joseph Cornell Box is a must purchase for the curious in quirkdom and SHEEKGEEK were so happy to see that this very special book is endorsed by the wonderful Jonathan Safran Foer.



Safran Foer is a man who appreciates both quirkdom and Joseph Cornell. As if his The Project Museum wasn't enough already, Jonathan has also edited a collection of fiction, all inspired by the work of Joseph Cornell; look out for "A Convergence of Birds" available from all good book shops.

Quiz Night

SHEEKGEEK loves a quiz challenge and we've got a real treat for you!

We will concede this is not really SHEEK...it is pure, unadulterated GEEK. So without further ado, we challenge you; Donald Judd or Cheap Furniture?

Tools

If SHEEKGEEK had a tool kit, it would without question be from Wohngeist. We first saw these in Wallpaper Magazine of all places and we thought these tools were far too quirky for the likes of them, so we stole them and we're not sorry!
