About
Labirinto della Masone, is a maze in the town of Fontanellato near Parma, Italy. It was built by art publisher, designer and editor Franco Maria Ricci (1937–2020) on the suggestion of the Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges, who was one of Ricci's closest friends. Entirely made of bamboo, the time of its realization, the maze was the largest in the world. Following Ricci's death, the about eight hectares maze is to these days a local tourist attraction. It is adjoined by an arts complex including a museum displaying Ricci's art collection and typeface holdings and another art gallery exhibiting Ricci's work as a graphic designer.
