We undertaken in this work, an analysis of six critical texts about the work of the Pernambucano painter Cicero Dias. In the light of the theoretical citation of Critical
Discourse Analysis (CDA), specifically of the three-dimensional model analysis of proposed speech by Norman Fairclough (2001),we identified in the critiques that make
up the corpus of our work, the enunciated modality, the intertextuality, the interdiscursivity and the ethos in order to check that images of the painter s work are
built by these texts. To undertake this analysis, we placed Cicero Dias in the scenery of the Brazilian art and we made a brief gathering of his life and the phases of his work.
Furthermore, we examined the nature and origin of the critique of art in Brazil in the same way that we made reflections about the social role of critique and the critical. Our study induced us to infer that the critique of art, while guides the look of the interlocutor, constitutes itself in more one implement formative of opinion Who has imputed to the critical the Power to say and He approval of the society to say what He says.
