Uli Golub (*1990 in Kharkiv, Ukraine) lives and works in Oakland, California. She was born in Kharkiv, Ukraine, where she studied philology at the V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University. In 2016, she completed her studies at the Rodchenko School of Photography and Multimedia in Moscow under the mentorship of artist Sergey Bratkov. Her artistic practice includes video, installation, performance, photography and mixed-media collages. Storytelling forms the basis of her work. Fascinated by speculative fiction, cosmism and futurism, the artist is interested in constructing narratives that inspire viewers to dream of possible new realities, relationships and the deconstruction of power dynamics. 
Uli Golub shows her work in exhibitions and screenings, including at the Folkwang Museum in Essen. In 2020, Uli Golub won the second special prize of the Pinchuk Art Center Prize and received the Emergency Grant from the Foundation For Contemporary Arts in Ukraine.

Dorsten

The Grand Snail Tour will be accompanied by literary, photographic and illustrative artists, who will collect impressions and reflections from the same city at the same time as the Trailer is there and put them into visual or literary form. The result is a paratext on the three-year tour, a travel chronicle in the form of a kaleidoscope of stories, connections and snapshots in the 53 cities of the region, revealing the simultaneities and non-simultaneities of the Grand Snail Tour. Chroncler in Dorsten is Anna Haifisch.

„Vorbei am Baumarkt und dem geschlossenen Wettbüro, nach zwei schaurigen Eisenbahnbrücken, stand da plötzlich dieser kleine Kohlenwagen mit dem Namen des Angelsportvereins als liebevolle Erinnerung an alte Zeiten. Statt Erz und Kohle lugten ein paar erfrorene Blümchen hervor. Mit dem kleinen Wägelchen wäre ich gern durch Dorsten gerollt, musste aber leider meine kalten Füße benutzen.“ - Anna Haifisch
