An interior view of Salon Natasha. On the floor is the engine of Cadillac-Icarus, a sculpture by Vu Dan Tan which he created in 1999 in Oakland, USA, at Pacific Bridge gallery. The engine of the Cadillac had once been confiscated by customs in Hai Phong on the way to Vietnam from the United States; it was later sold to Vu Dan Tan by the customs officers. Tan considered the engine 'the heart' of his Cadillac sculpture.
Above the engine are two paintings by Eric Leroux.
After the death of Vu Dan Tan in 2009, Salon Natasha became predominately Natasha Kraevskaia's 'office'. It operated non-commercially and continued to display works by Vu Dan Tan and his artist friends.
