In the 1970s, Jan Hladík interrupted his graphic work and returned to it again only after 1989, mostly using the dry needle technique. At that time, he also created a number of oil paintings on graphic matrices.

in 1967. The artist's first tapestries, woven from 1959 onwards according to designs created first as graphic prints and drawings (''Gemini'', monotype 1965, tapestry 1967), range in subject matter from figures with post-Cubist morphology (''Shieldmaker'', 1968, Tokyo) to abstract motifs (''Stele-Scar'', 1970). The mid-1970s marked a radical turn to figurative work in tapestry with ''The Kiss of Judas of St. Gill'' (1974), based on a Romanesque relief. The classical tapestry technique, grasped in an original and subjective way, allows Hladík to actively experience every detail and express psychological expression while weaving. This is followed by a series of expressive scenes with actors from ''Divadlo za branou (Theatre behind the gate)'', woven after photographs by
