ABOUT THE EXHIBIT

Do you ever wonder how Bruce Lee developed the philosophy behind his most iconic quote?

This incredible interactive exhibit invites viewers to step into the mind, body, and spirit of Bruce Lee to see how his unquenchable pursuit of knowledge informed his philosophy and life.

Follow Bruce’s path beginning with his revelations on water, through the wealth of knowledge found in his 2,800-book personal library, to his philosophy on self-understanding and self-expression.

The exhibition’s interactive technology interweaves beautiful imagery with Bruce’s personal objects and books to bring his journey to life.

“Empty your mind. Be Formless. Shapeless. Like water.”

— Bruce Lee

“THE DRAGON LIVES HERE”

INSPIRED ARTWORK BY GLENN MITSUI

“Seattle’s Chinatown District filled an important chapter in the story of Bruce Lee’s life. He worked and lived in the neighborhood, it was the home of his first practice space, first martial arts studio, his favorite local hangouts and restaurants. It’s where he met his wife and it is his final resting place. This piece celebrates that connection and allows me to pay homage to one of my heroes.” – Glenn Mitsui
