Timeline

2018

Along with other African artists, Ishaq's paintings have been shown at Saatchi Gallery in London in the exhibition titled Forests and Spirits: Figurative Art from the Khartoum School from September to November 2018, and one of her works from this exhibition was sold by auction house Sotheby's in London in 2020. In October 2022, Serpentine South Gallery in London opened a retrospective exhibition covering works since her early years until the present.

1978

In 1978 Ishaq and two of her students, Muhammad Hamid Shaddad and Nayla El Tayib, started the conceptual art movement called Crystalist Group that broke away from traditional practices in the Sudanese art scene. Their intention was to distinguish themselves from the Khartoum School of painting and their traditional male-centred outlook. This new approach in Sudanese painting was marked by a public declaration in the form of the so-called Crystalist Manifesto. First published in Arabic as Al-Bayan al-Kristali, the document presented an artistic vision that attempted to work beyond the Sudanese-Islamic framework of the Khartoum School. Moreover, the Crystalists sought to internationalize their art by embracing an existentialist avant-garde, more akin to European aesthetics..mw-parser-output .templatequote{overflow:hidden;margin:1em 0;padding:0 40px}.mw-parser-output .templatequote .templatequotecite{line-height:1.5em;text-align:left;padding-left:1.6em;margin-top:0}

1970

Ishaq's artistic and spiritual influences go back to the works of William Blake and the Zār spiritual rituals of Sudanese women. These themes of existentialism and the culture of women served as central themes of Ishaq's work in the 1970s and 1980s. These influences distinguished Ishaq from her compatriots, who were inspired largely by notions of Sudan's post-colonial independence and Islamic themes. If Blake and Zar provided personal inspiration, it was as member of the Khartoum School of painting where Ishaq began to be known as an artist. The goal of that movement was a combination of African and Islamic cultural traditions with and Modernism. The Khartoum School's transcultural blending presented a new sense of Sudanese identity, expressed in abstract forms, earthy colors and Arabic calligraphy. Along Ibrahim El-Salahi, Ishaq is considered to be one of Africa's most prominent painters, and her focus on women's lives has been called a challenge to the traditional male perspective in Sudanese art.

1959

Ishaq was born in Omdurman and studied from 1959 to 1963 at the College of Fine and Applied Art of the Khartoum Technical Institute that later became the Sudan University of Science and Technology (SUST) in Khartoum. Further to this, she pursued her postgraduate studies in painting, illustration and lithography at the Royal College of Art in London between 1964 and 1969. After her stay in London, she returned to teach at her former college and also became dean of this art school.

1939

Kamala Ibrahim Ishaq (Arabic: كمالا إبراهيم اسحق, born 1939) is a Sudanese painter and art teacher, known as one of the founders of The Crystalist conceptual art group in Khartoum. This group rejected common conventions in Sudanese modern painting of the 1960s and strived to find "an aesthetic and critical language that would emphasise the notions of pleasure and knowledge in order to permanently abolish differences and boundaries". Based on her artistic career spanning more than fifty years, Ishaq has been called one of the most important visual artists in Africa.
