Emmy-nominated TV costumes from Genius: Picasso on display...

As today is 'Go to an Art Museum Today Day', what better way to celebrate than with these costumes from the second season of National Geographic's historical anthology series, Genius, which this time around focused on the life and times of Pablo Picasso played by Antonio Banderas (and Alex Rich as a younger version of the artist). The limited television series explored the multiple affairs and relationships of the 20th century's most celebrated artist, and the demons and inspiration that drove him.
