Isis Kischka (Russia, 1908 - Montmorency, 1973) is a figurative painter French.

Isis Kischka did part of her studies in Dreux. He had the experience of concentration camps during the Second World War, near Compiègne, where he met, in particular, the painter Abraham-Joseph Berline (1894-1944). He survived the internment. A merchant in men's shirts, he became passionate about art.

Of expressionist leanings, he was the founding president of the Salon of Painters Witnesses of their Time, of which he was the general secretary, until his death in 1973. With the help of Georges Reccio, the association took shape : he organized annual exhibitions, at the Museum of Modern Art and the Galliera Museum in the city of Paris, allowing promising artists to be highlighted, around general themes. A posthumous tribute was paid to him in 1975, on the theme: “As You Like It…”, at the Orangerie in the capital of France.

The Meudon Museum of Art and History has numerous drawings from the Salon of Painters, witnesses of their time, having belonged to Kischska, who did not sign the majority of her works.
