Yes, culture and arts were merely a form of propaganda in the Nazi state. Hitler did not see the significance in art, unless it conveyed a propagandist message. Moreover, it was believed that art forms such as paintings, music, theatre, and radio strengthened German unification and influenced others to believe in the superiority of the German race and the value of Nazi ideologies. In addition to this, Joseph Goebbels, who was the minister of propaganda and popular enlightenment in 1933, stated that art forms were suitable in conveying propaganda.
