Out of these two paintings, I prefer the Kandinsky. The Kandinsky painting uses movement, shapes and bright colors that I find more interesting and thought provoking than the homogeneous style of the Pollock. When I look at the Pollock, I take away all that I can immediately. I instantly get a mood and feel of the painting, but beyond that, there isn't much to think about when looking at it. The Kandinsky not only gives off a mood and feel, but also then gives abstract shapes and images that can be pondered and interpreted.
While the Pollock is visually pleasing, I believe that the Kandinsky is much more so. The Pollock uses mostly neutral colors and has no forms or shapes in it. The eye catching colored shapes in the Kandinsky make it more appealing personally.
