Do you want these paintings to be live feeds? Like a web cam?

Or do you want the museum to be more like a virtual tour?

Not too sure why you think using TGEA makes it easier to edit...but here's what you are looking at:

You need an artist or level designer to make the interior of the museum (not always that easy).

You need a model of a frame (multiple frames if you have different canvas sizes and border materials), which is easy enough.

Once this is set up, you would have a dedicated server running 1 level which contains the museum.

Everything else is just using WorldEditor to place the paintings and spawn location.

The only thing you have to update is the textures used on the canvases. I honestly don't think you need any engine modifications at all, just some simple scripting to set up your camera controls, level creation, etc.

Assets a side, I could do this over the weekend, and I'm a slacker =).
