CAMBRIDGE - Group exhibitions of experimental video art can be hectic and bothersome. It comes with the territory, right? Not surprisingly, "Virtuoso Illusion: Cross-Dressing and the New Media Avant-Garde,'' the new show organized by guest curator Michael Rush at MIT's List Visual Arts Center, fits the bill neatly. And yet, in spite of sporadic irritations, it's a rewarding, provocative show.
   
VIRTUOSO ILLUSION: Cross-Dressing and the New Media Avant-Garde At: MIT List Visual Arts Center, Cambridge, through April 4. 617-253-4680.
