Bruce Lee (1940–1973) was originally named Li Zhenfan, and is an internationally renowned superstar. He was born in the United States, studied in Hong Kong and the United States, and established the "Jen-Fan Kung Fu Institute" in the United States, introducing the concept of Chinese Kung Fu to the American film and television industry. In 1971, he returned to Hong Kong to shoot five films that became classics. He combined the concepts of many martial arts and founded "Jeet Kune Do". Off camera, Bruce Lee loved his family and reading. He expressed his true friendship through letters and explained his life philosophy through words. He strived to break through inherent limitations throughout his life. Through daily training and self-reflection, he surpassed himself and transformed himself into an international legend. The Hong Kong Heritage Museum and the Bruce Lee Foundation have once again joined hands to present the "Ordinary•Extraordinary - Bruce Lee" exhibition, which displays about 400 precious cultural relics, and adds large-scale light and shadow multimedia displays and interactive projects. From the aspects of film, martial arts, and personal cultivation, it reviews the perseverance of Li Zhenfan and how he created the legend of Bruce Lee.

"Chen Fushan Studio" uses Chen Fushan's home studio as a reference, and selects his personal belongings from his former residence in Wan Chai, including various household furnishings, hand-painted paintings and collections of books for display, in order to reproduce Chen's living environment and the layout when he was painting.

"Chen Fushan Studio" also leads the audience to review Chen's artistic journey and style development by displaying historical photos and text records about Chen's life, and wander in the story that created the legendary life of the "Watercolor King".

秀蘭創作以馬克筆爲主，透過色彩與線條，她塑造出獨樹一幟的繪畫風格，敢於運用色彩脫離現實束縛呈現強烈的視覺衝擊，儘管她的作品充滿大膽與奇異，秀蘭的性格卻是文靜、內斂的。 沉澱在繪畫世界六年，無論是靜物、人像還是動物，秀蘭都能以獨特的手法詮釋她的視覺語言，於抽象與具象之間游走。大眼睛和長睫毛是畫中面容最具象徵性的特色。那些變形的人像和動物展現出詭譎的外貌與微妙的表情，散發出奇特的氛圍。有時在畫作完成後，她更會提筆寫下文字，字句是重重複復的，似是在點綴畫作，又似是在說甚麽，為作品增添更深的含義。 總是靜靜地、持續地畫畫的秀蘭，如同一隻內斂、溫馴而文靜的小兔子，是次展覽以「兔子洞」的隱喻為靈感，展示秀蘭超現實視覺創作，如同踏入兔子洞般，探索一個充滿幻象與奇異的世界！
