Julio Ruelas, modernista, el viajero lúgubre, 1870-1907 (book) by Carlos Monsiváis, Antonio Saborit. Publisher Editorial Rm Rio Panuko, 1999. Museo Nacional de arte. New book in Spanish. 232 pages.

Julio Ruelas remains an enigma in Mexican art and deserves greater recognition. This book places Ruelas in the context that best highlights the relevance of his work: surrounded by his colleagues at the Revista Moderna, an emblem of Mexican and Latin American modernists who, breaking free from the constraints of the Academy, breathed new life into literature and the visual arts. Meticulous essays by three of Mexico’s most eminent critics—Teresa del Conde, Carlos Monsiváis, and Antonio Saborit—explore the multifaceted nature of Ruelas, beginning with his stereotypical depictions of fauns, ghosts, and succubi.
