August 17 — admin : "Hi Adam,Yes, it is the exact same artwork, widely known as "Red Sun and Ship". Its official catalog name is "Ein Speer" ("One Spit").As for the owner, the painting belongs to a private collection, and the specific owner's name is not publicly disclosed." »

August 16 — Adam Ørvad : "Is the not "Red Sun and Ship" (Krasnoe Solnce i Korabl)(1925)?? And do you know, who is the owner? Regards, Adam Ørvad" »

July 28 — Yves GUERRINI : "Cette composition illustre parfaitement la dernière manière de Kandinsky, lorsqu'il s'établit en France. Le biomorphisme et le lyrisme de cette œuvre pourrait faire penser aux formes biomorphiques que Miro commençait de peindre à cette époque." »

July 28 — Yves GUERRINI : "Une œuvre manifeste du Bauhaus. Elle réalise à la perfection les théories énoncées dans "Point, ligne sur plan"" »

July 28 — Yves GUERRINI : "Magistrale composition qui se trouve à la lisière entre figuration et abstraction." »

July 28 — Yves Guerrini : "Somme de toutes ses recherches antérieures, cette vaste composition n'en est pas moins confuse et touffue, Kandinsky n'ayant pas su limiter ses moyens plastiques." »

July 26 — Carole : "He’s tired of the formalities set down about painting. He will, at this time, do what feels good. Some may say a regression , for him it is a liberation! You would have had to follow his journey to understand where he is now. Like or dislike,is not in his vocabulary." »

July 11 — Yagiz Saglam : "Hi, I am currently writing my thesis about "doors" and getting inspiration for my diagram" »

June 27 — Dany : "I adore wassily's concentric circles. I didn't realise it was this small. I first saw it on a calender and was determined to copy it hooking rug style for a wall hanging.Done in hand dyed skirting bought from charity shops. It actually only took me 3 weeks. It is such a talking point when I have visitors. Funnily enough I dont care for his compositions but adore the two circles pieces." »

May 18 — Rayathad The Fifth : "This is bewtiful, just bewtiful.. In my castle, in transilvanya I have some works like his, love him! Makes me cry when I see his work, my emotions just start flowing...." »
