Biography: Isis Kischka (Paris, 1908-1973) was a French figurative painter.

Her parents, immigrants originally from the Russian Empire, settled in Paris.

Isis Kischka spent part of her studies in Dreux. He endured the experience of concentration camps during the Second World War, near Compiègne, where he met, among others, the painter Abraham-Joseph Berline (1894-1944). He survived internment. A seller of menswear shirts, he became passionate about Art.

Of expressionist tendency, he was the founding president of the Salon of Painters Bearing Witness to Their Time, of which he was secretary-general until his death in 1973. With the help of Georges Reccio, the association took shape: he organized annual exhibitions at the Musée d'Art Moderne and at the Musée Galliera in Paris, allowing promising artists to be showcased around general themes. A posthumous tribute was paid to him in 1975, on the theme: "Comme Il Vous Plaira...", at the Orangerie in the French capital.

In 2001, works from his studio were dispersed at an auction.

The Musée d’Art et d’Histoire de Meudon possesses many drawings from the Salon of Painters Bearing Witness to Their Time, which belonged to Kischka, who did not sign the majority of his works.

Seller's Story

TO KNOW: Professional gallery for nearly 20 years, we pay particular attention to the works shipped. Each shipment is carried out quickly, with secure and appropriate packaging. Buyers commit to paying for their purchases within a maximum of 3 days. For any request to consolidate lots, please do so before payment, via Catawiki, or by email: info@artdif.fr. We can generally group +/- 7 works per parcel from the same sale. Some lots or works of particular formats require adapted shipping. We therefore group as much as possible, but this is in no way an obligation; additional fees related to customs declarations, insurance, and packaging adaptation may be requested from you. The number of required parcels and the shipping costs depend on feasibility. We do not offer any service beyond what is described or provided by Catawiki. Regarding multiples (numbered or justified works), unless otherwise stated, the numbering or justification may differ from what is shown in the photo, due to stock management. The shipped copy remains identical in quality, condition, edition, and value. Upon receipt, please check the parcel and the works in the presence of the carrier. Any damage must be reported immediately and noted with precise reservations on delivery. No claim can be accepted without formal reservations. A visibly damaged package should be refused to enable compensation. Catawiki remains a platform for exchange among passionate collectors: courtesy and respect are essential. We remain at your disposal and thank you for sending your messages clearly and politely. Thank you and happy bidding!
