Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required three evidentiary criteria. The Director and AAO found the petitioner only satisfied one criterion (display of work at artistic exhibitions), and the evidence for other criteria, such as lesser awards, was insufficient to prove national or international recognition. A key deficiency noted was the failure to provide properly certified English translations for foreign language documents.
