One up front - slightly to the top left, one at back (or the flector), adjusted so you can see the rim / edge of the metal (kicker).

If you can, another on the background itself to knock it to pure white..

kinda like

well put

because the subjects are visually very busy, you do not want anything in the background... there's already too much movement in the sculptures... stay away from black!!! get a nice white or light gray background, and try to stay away from using flash.. I think shadows will kill the shot.. get a bunch of lamps, take the covers off, and place them around, or shoot a lil high iso and use daylight from the windows... a lil grain from the high iso would actually look pretty badass i think
