Around the same time that the Workshop came into being Kwiek created his famous project Face (Twarz, 1971), which criticised the regime of the 1st Secretary of the Polish Communist Party KC PZPR Władysław Gomulka (soon after he resigned from his office) and mocked the figure of the former 1st Secretary. In 1971, Kwiek worked with his brother Przemysław, Zofia Kulik and Jan S. Wojciechowski on the film Open Form (Forma otwarta), whose title marks a reference to the Open Form Theory conceived by Oskar Hansen with a view to "improving communication and social individualism" (Ł. Ronduda, Sztuka polska lat 70. Awangarda, Warszawa 2009, s. 176).

Open Form was an experiment that explored the potential of such communication. Kwiek's film 1, 2, 3... Cinematographer's Exercises (1, 2, 3... ćwiczenia operatorskie, 1972) is a spontaneous improvisation that challenges the activities of political organisations (Union of Socialist Youth) at the Film School in Łódź.

At the time, he was already a member of the Independent Self-governing Trade Union "Solidarity" and an activist of the Committee for the Renewal of the Film School (Ruch Odnowy Uczelni). After 13 December 1981, Kwiek was expelled from the Film School. One of the forerunners of video art, Kwiek works with experimental film and video, photography, drawing. Author of manifestos and founder of artistic projects that borrow from other spheres of art, culture and related fields of knowledge: philosophy, cybernetics, poetry, sociology.
