PAUL HORIUCHI-Nordness, 831 Madison Ave. at 69th. This artist arrived at an esthetic blend of East and West by drawing by turns on Sumi-ink training in his native Japan, the tutelage of Seattle Zen Master Takizaki and, finally, the abstract expressionism of Mark Tobey (who selected this show). Horiuchi's abstract collages, composed of torn bits of rice and mulberry paper stained in misty shades of grey, evoke not so much nature's shapes as its weathery moods-sleet, snow, rain...
...landscapes he did in the medium, and eight self-portraits, ranging from a view of the uncombed but aspiring artist at 24 to the profound self-analysis that marked his later views of himself (through Jan. 16).

So Coward slowed...
Britannican Lyrics. To demonstrate his fitness, Coward took over this week as master of ceremonies on a 90-minute BBC television tribute to Sir Winston Churchill on the eve of his 90th birth day. Noting all this, the Times of London felt moved to write a tribute to Coward too. "Here, through and through, is a craftsman," explained the Times, "who has remained at the top of his profession for longer perhaps than any other living English playwright, simply because he has dedicated his life not to attitudes or to transient theatrical movements but to getting on with his work...
