Not in the Catholic sense. Ash Wednesday is observed as the beginning of lent, but not in the ritual sense you imply. It goes without saying statuary is generally not used in Lutheran churches either, excepting some monumentally royal ones in Scandinavia, some which date pre-reformation and have valuable art, tombs etc.
