We define a superpotential for energy-momentum and rotation momentum which is built out of the conformal tensor and a bivector. This superpotential is identified with that used by Penrose in his definition of quasilocal energy. It is applied to the definition of energy-momentum and rotation momentum at spatial and at null infinities. At spatial infinity the results are in agreement with those of Ashtekar and Hansen. At null infinity the results are unsatisfactory; they are tied to a specific Bondi frame. Thus, they are not in agreement with the results of Tamburino and Winicour, Geroch and Winicour, nor with those of Dray and Streubel. Some reasons for this failure are discussed.
