“Kandinsky himself divided his works into "impressions," "improvisations" and "compositions" – depending on their distance from the original impulse of life. At the final stop along the way – "compositions" – the artist arrived at pure abstraction. According to this terminology, Spicher’s Blossoms are, of course, "compositions". There are not representations – they are abstract formulae, colour arabesques. The concept is realized with the help of pure painting – the dramaturgy of the line, patch and colour”. Alexander Borovsky, head of the Contemporary Art Department in the State Russian Museum.
