Publié à l’occasion de l’exposition tenue en 2008 au CCA, Actions : comment s’approprier la ville comprend trente essais originaux de portée internationale.

Les actions sont représentées par des images couleur et de courtes descriptions, qui précisent le nom des acteurs, les outils et les lieux concernés. Mirko Zardini et Giovana Borasi, directeurs de la publication et commissaires de l’exposition, signent chacun une introduction offrant une perspective historique ; ils campent l’exposition et la publication dans le cadre de la conservation.

Il a voulu édifier une "villa" dans le sens plein du terme. Dix ans auparavant, Lord Burlington avait entièrement rénové son hôtel particulier à Londres en s'inspirant également de Palladio. Cette résidence, Burlington House, a contribué à lancer, avec Chiswick, un goût nouveau en architecture qui devait par la suite s'étendre à toute l'Angleterre et à l'Amérique du nord. Cette exposition, tout comme le catalogue qui l'accompagne, retrace l'élaboration d'un tout nouveau style architectural.
