Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because, despite meeting the minimum of three evidentiary criteria (display of work, authorship of scholarly articles, and judging), the petitioner failed the final merits determination. The AAO concluded that the petitioner's awards were not from prestigious exhibitions and were shared by numerous other artists, and the web articles about her did not sufficiently demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim or that she had risen to the very top of her field.
