People view a Bruce Lee exhibition
"We are absolutely thrilled that so many people continue to be inspired by him and find so much value in his life and work," Lee told AFP, adding that she would be in Tokyo next month to launch another exhibition of her father.
Keasler, who is an actress in the United States, said some of the exhibits were from the family's collection, including a pair of sunglasses, boxing headgear, film costumes, and samples of her father's handwriting.
The exhibition, which will end on April 6, is part of a series of events to pay tribute to Lee during this year's Hong Kong International Film Festival.
The future martial arts hero was raised in Hong Kong before moving to the United States in his late teens.
Keasler said they were raising funds for a US museum, and hoped a government plan to transform Lee's former home in Hong Kong's Kowloon Tong district -- now a seedy love hotel that rents out rooms by the hour -- would begin soon.
"We hope there will be some sort of symbiotic relationship between the museums in Hong Kong and the US, so that the two museums can share some of the exhibits."
A local design contest ended earlier this year. But the Hong Kong museum's final look, building costs, and the project's completion date have yet to be determined.
