## Caption

On view through March 20, Louise Despont: Energy Scaffolds and Information Architecture, Jennifer Bartlett: Hospital, and Please Make This Look Nice 
In Hospital, Bartlett based photographs she took during an extended stay at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center. The images are of quotidian things: corridors and views from the windows of waiting or treatment rooms. What makes them emotionally charged is not their mundane subject matter but their powerful subtext—Bartlett’s own mortality. These pastels are not maudlin but they register the particular circumstances of their creation —that they were made during the treatment of a grave illness.
