1.) Which of these do you like better? Why (be specific)?
I prefer Kandinsky's because it has a wider color palette, and is very vibrant and eye-catching. The shapes and lines are simple, which gives an air of being easygoing, though some aspects, such as the dark violet and black circles in the top left (which I think looks like a big, evil eye) give it an air of underlying darkness and insanity to it all, with the painting's lack or organization and rhyme or reason adding to this manic effect. To me, that's very enjoyable, if in a sort of creepy way.
2.) Which of these is more pleasing to look at? Why (be specific)?
The Pollock is more pleasing to look at because it's more collective and focused, with the monochrome palette keeping things relatively toned down, despite the frantic, splattering effect of the paint. It also seems more comfortably created, less angular and precisely measured than Kandinsky's.
