With close to a dozen spots, it might make sense to replace these with LEDs. But only if they won't leach out the colors!
I doubt that the LED emitters would cause any harm. One advantage to LEDs is the lack of UV or IR, as compared to std bulbs, reducing fading and food spoiling. Additionally, with high CRI, you get true color representations.

Let me double check with the applications team on the artwork question to be sure.
