I know places where art works are in exhibition with the purpose of selling.
All works are exhibited from date 1 to date 2, and as well as works are being
sold, they are marked with a red dot in the wall by their side, where numbers
are. So they are shops, but have temporary exhibitions.

Cross-referencing yes, but a hard rule too:
Option a) name
If it is named "Museum" tag as museum, otherwise tag as art_gallery.
Option b) permanent exhibition
If it has a permanent exhibition (along with any possible temporary
exhibitions) tag as museum, otherwise tag as art_gallery.
These options mostly run together, at least in Spain, and not only for art
places: I can not remember a single place named "museum" without permanent
exhibitions, from small houses devoted to a famous habitant (Casa Museo de
Colón -> Columbus Museum House or Casa Museo Tomás Morales -> Poet Tomás
Morales Museum House, both in Las Palmas) to the big ones we all have in mind,
through non-art big museums like Museo de La Ciencia y El Cosmos (Science and
Cosmos Museum in La Laguna).
