Cao Chong-en

Statue of Bruce Lee

2005

This monumental bronze sculpture depicts a shirtless martial artist in a dynamic, wide-legged stance with one arm extended outward in an iconic kung fu pose. Cast in dark patinated bronze, the figure captures both muscularity and fluid motion, embodying the explosive energy and philosophical grace associated with martial arts cinema. Positioned on the Avenue of Stars waterfront promenade overlooking Victoria Harbour, the work commands attention against the skyline of Hong Kong's urban landscape while remaining accessible to pedestrians. Created by sculptor Cao Chong-en in 2005, this commemorative piece has become an emblematic public landmark celebrating the cultural legacy of martial arts and cinema in East Asia, drawing tourists and admirers from around the world.
