The study introduces the Czech travellers who helped form the exotic art collections in the Czech Republic significantly and supported the relationship between Czech culture and non-European nations in this way. The author pays attention to the terminology and the first collections of exotic art within the Czech Republic. She points out not only the importance of exotic art but also the interesting stories of artefacts appearing in our collections. The next part of the study presents Czech travellers whose contribution to the theme was the most essential (Vojtěch Náprstek, Emil Holub, Enrike Stanko Vráz, Alberto Vojtěch Frič, Josef Kořenský, Joe Hloucha, Jiří Hanzelka and Miroslav Zikmund, Miloslav Stingl etc.); the development, present condition and listing of institutions exhibiting the exotic collections cannot be missing. The author puts stress on ethnological, anthropological, and artistic aspects of the theme that – even if not preferred by the present society – had a fundamental influence on forming the attitude of Czech culture to the distant civilizations. The travellers play one of the most important roles within this theme.
