French self-taught artist Nicole Pelegrin is among the artists featured in a summer group exhibition at La Galerie Miniature in Aix-en-Provence. Housed in a former newspaper kiosk, the artist-run space is believed to be one of the world's smallest galleries, measuring just 11 m².

Pelegrin's distinctive drawings and handcrafted masks are exhibited alongside works by fellow self-taught artists. The exhibition runs July 1–11 and August 19–29, with part of the display changing in September.
