Curtis and Erica Wright, founders of The Wright Group at Christie’s International Real Estate Group in Montclair, N.J., announced the grand opening of Wright Group Gallery at 46 Church St., located in the heart of Montclair Center’s Historic District on the ground floor of The Hall Building, for February 25, 2026. The inaugural exhibition, Born to Remember by internationally recognized contemporary artist John Ransom Phillips, is inspired by Bruce Springsteen’s autobiography, “Born to Run.”
This exhibition has been curated and produced by Erica Wright. The Wrights’ mission is to bridge the worlds of fine art and luxury real estate for their clients. As Brand Ambassadors for Christie’s International Real Estate, the Wrights are direct liaisons to the legendary auction house and work seamlessly with clients on both their real estate portfolios and personal collections.
“Wright Group Gallery establishes a dynamic space in a beloved historic building where world-class art meets a community of collectors and enthusiasts,” said Sonja Cullaro, executive vice president at Christie’s International Real Estate Group. “This exemplifies the Christie’s International Real Estate brand at its highest level — seamlessly combining personalized luxury real estate services with the world of fine art and fine living.”
Wright Group Gallery will donate a portion of proceeds from every sale to the Bruce Springsteen Center for American Music, a non-profit that preserves the legacy of Springsteen and celebrates the history of American music and its diversity of artists and genres.
“Art has always been an integral part of my life. While attending Montclair State University’s College of the Arts, I honed my visual storytelling, production and broadcasting skills graduating Dean’s Scholar. Professionally, I covered wealth, record-breaking auction sales, the art market, luxury goods, high-end real estate, and rare collectibles both domestic and internationally for CNBC for over a decade,” said Erica Wright. “More recently, attending Christie’s Art Business School program solidified my knowledge acquired over many years in the field. From journalist to gallerist, reconnecting with many of the art world’s most impressive advisors and institutional figures in our latest endeavors has been an incredible experience. We’re working with the most talented industry stakeholders and combining resources through our affiliation with Christie’s for results that are simply unmatched.”
The collegiate Gothic-style commercial Hall Building is under the management of Wright Group Property Management and is exclusively represented by The Wright Group. The Wrights partnered with premier designer Rachael H. Grochowski of RHG Architecture + Design to create a space that provides an elevated atmosphere for both the fine art gallery and their luxury real estate services.
