Black Sesame is IFP's projects space which opened in June 2014. Located in a converted boiler room of the IFP courtyard at Heizhima hutong 13, Black Sesame is an experimental space for exhibitions, performances, workshops and more. With its characteristic high ceiling, flexible lighting conditions and ideal exhibition layout, Black Sesame is a unique 'white cube' located in one of Beijing's best preserved courtyards.

 

Apart from being closely linked to IFP's residency programme and the resident artists, Black Sesame also works as a meeting space between the local Beijing art scene and international community of artists. With a programme focussing on solo exhibitions mixing Chinese and international artists with overlapping themes or interests, we encourage hands-on experimentation and transformation of the space itself. Artists and exhibitions are linked together through a programme which includes artists talks and performances.

芝麻空间是IFP工作室于2014年六月开设的项目空间，前身是黑芝麻胡同13号四合院里的一间锅炉室。芝麻空间置力为高水准的展览、表演和工作坊提供展示机会。富有特色的层高、灵活的光线选择和理想的展厅布局，都让芝麻空间成为了胡同里保存最完善的院子中，不那么寻常的一个“白立方”空间。

 

在为IFP工作室的驻留项目和艺术家提供展览机会之外，芝麻空间同时也是北京本土艺术圈和国际艺术群体的交汇处，展览项目以志趣相近的中国艺术家和外籍艺术家的个展为主，支持并鼓励动手实验和对空间本身的再创作。艺术家和展览之间也往往由一系列讲座和行为表演活动串联起来。
