Decision Summary
The motion to reconsider was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the prior decision incorrectly applied law or policy. The petitioner argued that evidence of a gallery opening was overlooked, but the AAO determined this evidence did not establish original artistic contributions of major significance to the field as required. The petitioner did not present a valid basis for reconsideration, as the motion essentially re-argued previously considered points.
