About
Historically, a Baker’s Dozen is thirteen loaves of bread instead of twelve, as British bakers in the 13th century gave customers an extra loaf of bread to avoid being punished by King Henry III for cheating the public when serving up notoriously light loaves.
It takes on new meaning during 2020, considering all the necessary pandemic closures, robbing the public of so many experiences. 2020 has proven to be a year of daunting challenges, and it is insightful to discover how diverse artistic practices can either reflect, oppose and/or move beyond the influences of our particular times....
What do these works of art reflect upon this historically charged moment?
