The Ormeau Baths gallery has re-opened after four montsh
A photographic exhibition in Belfast's Ormeau Baths gallery is attracting people not normally interested in art, the Arts Council has said.

The Magnum Ireland Photographic exhibition has been running at the newly reopened gallery in south Belfast for more than a month.

The pictures, by many world renowned photographers, span every walk of life in Ireland, north and south.

The pictures show images from the 1950s through to the present day.

The 150 photographs are the work of more than 30 photographers and will remain at the Baths until 16 September.

Iain Davidson, from the Arts Council, said it has turned out to be one of their more popular exhibitions.
