Elana Mann and HEX: Speak Again

Saturday, December 13, 2025 at 2:00 PM

Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery, Los Angeles

In celebration and expansion of our current exhibition Too Fast To Sing, join us on Saturday, December 13th at 2 p.m. for a special performance with Elana Mann and HEX, the award winning contemporary vocal sextet. Speak Again is a collaborative assembly of performances exploring the shifting politics of hearing, listening, and speaking. Reimagining LAMAG’s gallery as a stage, the artists of HEX weld Mann’s sculptural instruments into a meditation on the subtle distinctions between sound, language, and meaning. The performance resonates with the spirit of Mann’s practice oriented around freedom of speech, the amplification of divergent voices, and the productive force of difference. Speak Again arrives at a moment of international upheaval, asking audiences to consider how listening and speaking function as critical tools for navigating an incoherent and volatile present.
