BACKGROUND:
In 2011, the Town Council approved the Art Plan, which identified four potential public art projects.
One of the projects identified was the Cat Walk public art installation proposed for Downtown Los
Gatos, predominately oriented along Santa Cruz Avenue. The goal of the proposed project was to
celebrate the Town's namesake through a creative and integrated art display of 10 designs of unique and
individual cats. In 2013, the Arts and Culture Commission (ACC) released two Requests for Proposals
(RFP's) soliciting interested artists and sculptors to submit designs for this art installation project.

MARCH 6, 2014
DISCUSSION:
Request for Proposal Process and Artist Review and Selection
On May 1, 2013, the ACC released the first RFP for this public art installation. Proposals were due on
June 3, 2013 and fourteen artists submitted proposals. During the review and selection process, the
Public Art Sub - committee determined that the proposals submitted did not reflect the vision of 3-
dimensional cat sculptures that the ACC had envisioned when the project was proposed. Due to the
submissions not meeting this vision, the Public Art Sub - committee voted to reject the submissions
received, increase the project budget from $5,000 to $8,000, and revise and re- release the RFP with an
emphasis on soliciting proposals that were more sculptural and 3- dimensional in nature.
The second RFP was released on October 1, 2013 and submissions were due on November 15, 2013.
Seven artists submitted proposals. The Public Art Sub - committee met on November 20, 2013 to review
the artist proposals and chose three proposals to advance to the second round of reviews. Maquettes,
scale models of each of the proposals, were requested from each of the three finalists and were
submitted by the artists on January 13, 2014.
On January 14, a selection committee comprised of members of the Public Art Sub - committee, the
Museums of Los Gatos, the Parks Commission and the Los Gatos Chamber of Commerce, convened to
review the three finalists, and recommended Faducci LLC to the Arts Commission as the finalist for this
public art project. The Arts Commission voted to approve this recommendation at its January 15
commission meeting and to submit a recommendation to the Town Council to enter into an agreement
with Faducci LLC to commission ten sculptural cats.
Overview of Proposed Design
Faducci LLC is comprised of Solomon Bassoff and Domenica Mottarella, whose studio is located in
North San Juan, in the foothills of the California Siena Nevada. Both artists specialize in creating
sculptures for the home, garden and public art installations.
The proposal (Attachment 1) includes the design and sculpting of ten cats, with ten variations of six
designs of cats resting on the limbs or nooks of trees along North Santa Cruz Avenue. Each cat will be
sculpted with a steel armature, coated to prevent corrosion, and finished with concrete and/or glass
mosaic. The dimension of the cats would be from 10" to 12" from head to rear (not including the tail)
and each cat will weigh 10 lbs. or less. Each cat will have a hardened steel chain welded to the frame to
allow the sculpture to be attached around various sized tree branches, with a hardened padlock to secure
each chained sculpture.
The proposed timeline for construction is two months, as outlined in Attachment 2, Exhibit B. Delivery
and installation of the artwork will commence the week of May 26 and end on May 30, as outlined in
Attachment 2, Exhibit B.

Statement of Interest for
Town of Los Gatos Cat Art Project
It is our strong belief that the best civic artwork forges connection between community
and local environment, celebrates the unique qualities of a city, and communicates the
ideas, dreams and goals of the community to everyone that has the opportunity to
experience it. We are committed to working with the Town of Los Gatos and others
involved in the design process to offer artwork that is inspiring, beautiful and durable.
• Our proposed design would be to sculpt 10 cats with 10 variations of 6 designs of
the cat resting on a limbs or nook of a tree.
• We have proposed 6 basic cat forms.
• Each cat would be sculpted with a steel armature (coated to prevent corrosion)
and finished with concrete and/or glass mosaic.
• The dimension of the cats would be from 10" to 12" from head to rear (not tail)
and would weigh l Olbs. or less.
• Each cat would have a hardened steel chain welded to the frame to allow the
sculpture to be attached around various sized tree branches.
• A hardened padlock would secure each chained sculpture.
• The timeline would be two months for construction.
• The cost for 10 Faducci cats is $8000.
• Faducci owns all copyrights without restriction or infiingement on any third party
rights to the artwork submitted for consideration.
Our sculptures are uniquely designed with the highest quality materials, primarily hand -
sculpted cement. We use additional additives in the cement that protect against weather,
and in the event of graffiti, assist in its removal. All sculptures are designed for simple
maintenance, public safety, longevity and enjoyment. Our choice of cement as an artistic
medium, reflect the existing beauty and proven durability of our previous public art
projects.
We would like to work with the Town of Los Gatos to offer artwork for the project that
will inspire all, and create a unique sense of place. We would appreciate the opportunity
to touch the hearts of all who will visit and live in Los Gatos by creating sculpture that
will delight the imagination, enliven the heart and evoke the spirit of Los Gatos.
