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:
“In this sad state, God Tender Bowells run
Out streams of Grace: And he to end all strife
The Purest Wheate in Heaven, his deare-dear Son
Grinds, and kneads up into this Bread of Life.
Which Bread of Life from Heaven down came and stands
Disht on thy Table up by Angells Hands.”
—Edward Taylor (1645–1729)
