MoMA has done this occasionally for signage; I believe with Picasso's signature. It is definitely a matter of clearance, particularly where ARS is involved.

You know, a bunch of famous signatures and a tag line like "come join your favorite friends at the museum" or some such. Is this even a matter of copyright clearance -- perhaps right of publicity is more to the point. Any comments welcome.
