Bread & Work! is a work by the British artist and sculptor Baldrick Buckle. It was exhibited at the Oude Kerk, Amsterdam in 2007. It consisted of 2,600 loaves of unsliced and unpackaged bread. Although Buckle was relatively unknown at the time, the work gained significant popularity among both the art community and general public, which led to an article being published in De Telegraaf, a Dutch national newspaper. This article proved to be a significant development in his early career and led directly to his (ultimately unsuccessful) relocation to New York.

Famous quotes containing the word bread:
“no picture is made to endure nor to live with
but it is made to sell and sell quickly
with usura, sin against nature,
is thy bread ever more of stale rags
is thy bread dry as paper,”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)
