Yes. It is the function of art to hold a mirror up to society and to reflect back to society its feelings, dominant archetypes, emotions and failings, as well as the cultural symbols and signs that speak to all. Most humans (and this includes artists/architects) are basically untruthful. To raise art to some cultural panacea is not only pretentious but incorrect.
