Well, wonderful news! I just got word that the SFMOMA is interested in
participating, though I'm a little sceptical they have *any* public domain
works in house (Henri Matisse is the closest I can come, and he died in
1954).
I'll send more details as soon as they get in touch with me.

The DeYoung has an enormous collection of objets from
various periods,
it might be an excellent fit as well.

Hi!
Which local museums hosts art which is in public
domain? Definitely
not SFMOMA or San Jose Art Museum...
