Am I infringing on copyright if I sell a montage using a picture of a statue?
If I have taken a picture of a statue and incorporate that picture into my own photo montage/collage, publish and sell my montage or collage, am I infringing on copyright?

Yes. That is a derivative work, so you need to get permission from the sculptor.
