O czytaniu tekstów krytycznych

The number of texts dealing with the reception of art has been growing significantly in recent years. The reading of reviews or critical texts may be of great importance for shaping individual acts of reception. An attempt was made in this article to compile a list of possible „roles” of the critic (approaches) form the receiver’s perspective. Such a list built on the basis of intuition and observation, may be helpful to some extent in future studies on the social functioning of criticism.
