Poet, polyartist, sonosopher, and scholar of humanities, Caldiero makes things that appear as language or pictures or music, and then again as the shape of your own mind. Caldiero is the author of numerous publications, visual and text-sound works, including Poetry Is Wanted Here! (Dream Garden Press) and Sound Weave (Differential Records). He has appeared in various films, such as Trent Harris’ Plan Ten From Outer Space and Luna Mesa. He is featured in Dictionary of the Avant-Gardes (Routledge, London/NY) and is the subject of the experimental documentary film The Sonosopher: Alex Caldiero in life…in sound (Dream Garden Press and OHO Media). He is Artist in Residence at Utah Valley University. Sara Caldiero-Oertli was born in New Yorkand migrated to Utahto grow up. Her proximity to wilderness has played a major roll in inspiring her to teach, write and perform. She is an aspiring book artist but most of her time is spent making and teaching poetry. Her work is centered on the body and understanding language. She enjoys bringing poetry to desert adventurers and drifters on the street. Her most recent publication, "Snatch 'N' Sniff" is available at Ken Sanders Rare Books. City Art is longest running literary arts series in Salt Lake. We present authors of all genres as well as artists and musicians on the first three Wednesdays of each month at the Main Public Library from September to May.
