A painting with patterns of human figures from Dong Son (Bronze Age) drums.

Bui Viet Dung (b. 1957) studied at the Hue Fine Art Institute. In the early 1990s he worked with various media such as pastel, silk paintings, prints, and collage. A diagnostic motif in his abstract art is the figures of ancient people from the Dong Son Culture in the prehistoric Bronze Age in Vietnam.

Salon Natasha as an alternative art space had been a well-known exhibition space for artists of different generations in Hanoi. During the early years of its establishment (1990-1993), artists who exhibited at the Salon were mostly close friends with Vu Dan Tan.
Back in the early 1990s, artists that actively engaged in the Salon include Bui Thanh Phuong, Do Phan and his father Mo Thanh (a pseudonym), Nguyen Dinh Dung, Tran Thieu Quang, Bui Viet Dung, Ngo Dinh Chuong, Ngo Manh Quynh, Mai Chi Thanh, and Eric Leroux.
