In addition to his role at Isuma, Cohn has worked independently and was a widely exhibited video artist before coming to Igloolik. His solo exhibition of sixteen videos, Norman Cohn: Portraits, was presented in 1983-84 at the Art Gallery of Ontario, National Gallery of Canada, Vancouver Art Gallery and other Canadian museums; while the feature-length Quartet for Deafblind (1987) was selected for Dokumenta 7 in Kassel, Germany. Cohn is winner of three Canada Council Senior A Awards and a 1990 Guggenheim Fellowship.
