Step inside a cave with a virtual reality headset to see amorous cave drawings, send up smoke signals, watch two actors from Deaf West Theatre on a date using sign language and see some of the great pop cultural moments of love. Check out our photos from opening night, where Maggie Gyllenhaal unveiled a silent film she contributed to the exhibit and performances by DJ duo Lion Babe.

The exhibit is free and open to the public this weekend at 433 Broadway at Howard Street, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
