Jag ska i denna uppsats redogöra för och diskutera kritik emot George Dickies institutionella konstteori, såsom den framställs i the Art Circle (1984) och framåt, senast i Art and Value (2001).

Uppsatsen grundar sig på en empirisk undersökning av hur studenterna på Institutionen för nordiska språk kommaterar. Utfallet analyseras mot bakgrund av Lars-Johan Ekerots teori om en utveckling mot koncentration på prototypfallen. Av undersökningen att döma har Ekerots teori ingen bäring.
