Both tags are somewhat overlapping and historic=memorial already has 
some types:

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:memorial:type
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:memorial

There are 3 equivalents of a common case (memorial in the form of 
statue):
- historic=memorial + memorial:type=statue
- historic=memorial + memorial=statue
- historic=memorial + tourism=artwork + artwork_type=statue

Which one should we use as canonical form?

How do we know when "main purpose is to remind us of a person or an 
event" or is just decorative?

Where the sculpture_shape really belongs to? Is it somehow like 
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/artwork_subject#values ? It sounds 
like artwork_type=sculpture + sculpture_shape=*, but what about statue? 
Do we need another type like artwork_type=statue + statue_shape=*?

But this is rather subject for a Tagging list - let's move there.
