The Professional Native Indian Artists Incorporation (PNIAI) was a group of First Nations artists from Canada, with one from the United States.^[1] Founded in November 1973, they were Indigenous painters who exhibited in the mainstream art world.

They were informally known as the Indian Group of Seven and now the Indigenous Group of Seven.^[2] The nickname alludes to the Group of Seven, an early 20th-century Euro-Canadian group of painters.

The PNIAI were Daphne Odjig, Alex Janvier, Jackson Beardy, Eddy Cobiness, Norval Morrisseau, Carl Ray and Joseph Sanchez.
