The dissident artist duo Komar and Melamid from the Soviet Union reflect on their career.

In the USSR, they rebelled against the regime through satire and parody. In New York, they were crowned Soviet Pop Artists. Now, decades after the collapse of both the USSR and their friendship, the dissident duo once known "Komar and Melamid" reflect on their unlikely life story as the Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers University presents their retrospective, "Komar and Melamid in America."
