A cross is not a statue, it is a symbol.

A CROSS is considered a religeous symbol not a statue or a monument,however many fine examples of contenpory religeous iconography abound,some of which cross over the barrier between merely being a statue of a religeous icon fixed to a cross and those whose dimensions trancend statuery and are truly monumental an example could be the angel of the north.

I always understood "statue" as something three-dimensional. But the cross symbot is not always 3D, it can be painted as two-dimensional whether it has many frills drawn around it or just a plain + (plus) symbol.

A statue usually refers to a 3-d human form.
A 3d cross should not be referred to as a statue.
You can refer to both as sculptures, 3d forms, perhaps monuments (depending where and why they have been erected).
Hope this ans helps. sw

Please modify this question.
It's meaningless at the moment and my Ouija board's buggered.
