INCORPORATIONS
Michael Stevenson, Tomasz Skibicki
GDL525, Amsterdam
1–23 November, 2025
GDL525 is situated on the fifth floor of Gouden Leeuw, a monumental concrete complex of
400 apartments built in 1974 in the Amsterdam South-Eastern suburb of the Bijlmermeer.
Tomasz Skibicki’s and Michael Stevenson’s exhibition, Incorporations, considers GDL525
multipurpose functions as curatorial office, exhibition space, and domestic interior, to
imagine an architectural system where typology morphs into anatomy.
Incorporations borrows its title from processes of incorporation as blurrings and reformings
of boundaries between organism and system, self and infrastructure, revealing complexity
through scaling and doubling. The exhibition reframes corridors as digestive tracts, fire exits as throats and the entire building as a colossal body corporate whose circulatory system
mirrors those of its inhabitants and visitors.
For Michael Stevenson and Tomasz Skibicki, this dual morphology arises also from the
screen as a purveyor of riddled translation, regression, and doubling. A space of re-scaling
where proof and apparition flip in endless relay: between actor and audience, content-maker
and viewer, sender and receiver, celebrity and fan, healer and healed.
The showcased works are new examinations of previously presented pieces staged for the
tubular entrance corridors, the living room of apartment 525 and the high-rise fire exit of
tower 5 of the monumental residential complex.
On November 13th, the exhibition was extended in a talk by Michael Stevenson at the
Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten. The talk departs from the works featured in the
exhibition to exemplify the artist’s four-decade-long ongoing investigation into the
entanglement of belief, psychiatric, and institutional systems of power, control, and
domination, while opening a view onto the broader concerns and interests that have shaped
his work and practice.
The exhibition was made possible with the support of the Amsterdam Fonds voor Kunsten and Amarte.
